hot take none of this no-code automation crap actually makes life any better. You want something automated, you gotta automate it yourself. BRB, putting the Dev back in #DevOps and the E back in #SRE

Gotta admit it's not that easy to write operators in nomad but heck if I'm gonna quit trying
Replying to @aantn
I have a feeling it's due to control plane extensibility. If it was only the orchestration bits, Nomad would've had a bigger share of the pie than it has today for various architectural decisions. Also, CNCF/Google must have played a big role in the initial adoption.

2023 is breaking my brain
The Russian invasion of Russia would never have happened had Ukraine been allowed to join NATO. Thus, it is NATOs fault. As always.

I am once again trying to tell a story with a bunch of feedback loops because the nature of reality is recursive. Folks don't like that. The linear story is so seductive but ever deceptive

I honestly can't believe that Mozambique of all countries can get on the right side of this and we're doing midnight spares in the frikkin ocean
Honoured to be received by Mozambique’s President @Filipe_Nyusi. Grateful for his solidarity with the Ukrainian people. We agreed to work on boosting bilateral relations on the basis of mutual respect and interests. As a first step, Ukraine will establish an embassy in Maputo.
