I enjoy reading what people learned, or what changed their minds on Mastodon. I'd like to see more of that 🤔

A #ThingILearnedToday :

Early #FreeMarket advocates like #AdamSmith did not foresee #EconomiesOfScale.

Their idea of free markets works as long as most employees eventually become self-employed. Economies of scale ruined that in a way. Large companies are much more efficient, so being self-employed will never pay off for most people.

#thingIlearnedtoday I've been of the mistaken understanding that liveness and readiness probes in k8s would let me restart a pod if the container within it needs restarted. That language exists in logs of blog posts, etc. Technically, it'll let me restart the failing container, NOT the pod. Which makes a difference when a pod contains multiple containers. Grrr.... Trying out a potential workaround now....
