In the afternoon I noticed that the Aphonopelma seemanni I keep was
out in the open, on top of the piece of cork underneath which she has
her burrow. I discovered that this large tarantula is a female the
28th of June,
2020 by inspecting her
exuviae (molt).

In the above photo you can clearly see the beautiful pattern on her
legs; I love the contrast it makes.
After I took the above photo I gave her two mealworms.
A question I often hear from teams - both new and established - is
“should we host our stack on
Kubernetes?”. Given all the buzz it gets
in the tech world a lot of people assume so.
I’ve been working with k8s for several years - often with very
powerful and complex platforms - and I think the truth is more
nuanced.
Here’s my attempt at untangling that decision. It’s geared toward
startups and self-sufficient teams in wider organisations with
responsibility for hosting their own products. It might also have
value to people in more traditional IT departments at larger
organisations.
