You didn't really say much of what does it do wrong or right, you seem to just try to convey a for-granted idea.
I've been an msft employee for a couple of years and teams... Was ok. I prefer slack, but meetings, video, messaging, formatting, etc. was just fine in teams.
I think there must be still some corp frameworks that do use it extensively, but it's just not heard all that much about.
Some examples, (Broadcom) Vmware NSX-T gateways, Alivaba used to use it, and a lot of extreme HFT use it too, mostly to reduce latency and manipulate tcp.
You can still exec yourself into the pods. No one said you cannot.
There is no shell or ssh on the hosts for you to login to, but still if you absolutely must you can create a privileged container and mount /. Whole point is you shouldn't.
Imo this makes no sense. There's zero chance you will start inspecting all dependencies even in a relatively small application, which now a days could pull already a large number of deps.
I don't see how doing any of this manually will help.
Linux is a massive foot-gun in the hands of someone random, it is built with certain assumptions in mind that don't bode well with how companies want to ship you stuff, and how they envision to "keep you safe".
Of course if a company wants to ship you something linux-based is going to be brutally adultetred, or otherwise you might even be able to really own the thing and do whatever you want with it, which is very much the opposite companies want when they sell you something.
Where's the incentive in any of that? Pour money in linux desktop development for what? (So we can have linux desktop... sooner?)
If there were any money to be made in linux desktop, it would have already happened imo, or otherwise the cost-opportunity is still to high.
If anything, more than a gold mine, looks like a gold sink to me
And don't get me wrong, been on arch for 7 years and i've long since ditched win. But I still don't think there's any meaningful incentives for companies to push for linux desktop.
IMHO having a good desktop linux distro (or a proper desktop linux experience) doesn't have to correlate to a gold mine, and I'm not sure why the author conflates the two.
If the linux desktop space is advancing so slowly is precisely and because of the opposite: because desktop linux is made and maintained by a bunch of people who do it for free.
Alas, valve has done a pretty good job with proton and steamdeck which is helping the ecosystem. here's to hoping wayland and nvidia drivers 555 with explicit sync[1] we might get something decent next few months.
No, it does not. That the users end up paying more in no way means or should be implied that they _choose_ to pay more.
If cheaper options are made less accessible or clearer, and customers are intentionally mislead to more expensive products, as a result they will pay more too.
I can at least confirm that in my home european country japanese animated series did not start appearing until late 80s, early 90s, and by all means they were outliers and not _popular_ at very least til some heavy hitters came around the 90s.
I also don't know how applicable is making broad statements to europe as a whole in this specific regard. I feel cultural barriers have traditionally been pretty tall and what might be applicable to a country might not be applicable in the same timeframe to a neighboring one.
I think there are levels of dedication, and parenthood expectations of what having a child is going to be like play a major role.
I'm going to be a father in a couple months and I'm observing most of my friends who did care about avoiding screens for their children give up partially on the idea because they've categorized it borderline impossible. I'm talking about parents who did deeply and seriously care about it prior having the kid.
Meanwhile I have two othwr friends who kinda got away with no screens. But i feel they do put a lot more effort for it.
So my take observing those samples: expectation management and be self-aware of how much sacrifice does it take.
If anyone has more adivice on this I'd appreciate too.
I set up immich backed by ceph last week and I got everything migrated via immich-go, with all metadata albums and all.
Had to change some parallelization option, but otherwise it was a breeze.
