So you wanna write Kubernetes controllers? (ahmet.im)
Any company using Kubernetes eventually starts looking into developing their custom controllers. After all, what’s not to like about being able to provision resources with declarative configuration: Control loops are fun, and Kubebuilder makes it extremely easy to get started with writing Kubernetes controllers. Next thing you know, customers in production are relying on the buggy controller you developed without understanding how to design idiomatic APIs and building reliable controllers.
Zork: The Great Inner Workings (2020) (medium.com)
Roughly a year ago, during the summer of 2019, I got an idea. I was setting up a Kubernetes cluster, and as I usually do, I set up a mock web server using Nginx to test out Ingress, SSL, and domain settings. Then it hit me, wouldn’t it be great if instead of a boring webserver I would use a web game as my testing service and then leave it in the cluster as sort of a calling card.

PostmarketOS-Powered Kubernetes Cluster (denv.it)
Having a few Raspberry Pi 4s at my disposal, I found myself somewhat dissatisfied with their processing capabilities and power management features. This led me to explore alternative solutions, particularly given the collection of old smartphones gathering dust in my drawer. These devices, while outdated for daily use, still pack considerable computing power. In this article, I’ll walk through how I transformed these old smartphones into a functional Kubernetes cluster using postmarketOS, giving them a second life as computing nodes.

Kubernetes on Hetzner: cutting my infra bill by 75% (bilbof.com)
I Didn't Need Kubernetes, and You Probably Don't Either (benhouston3d.com)
Kubernetes often represents the ultimate solution for container orchestration, but my experience has led me to leave it behind in favor of a simpler, cost-effective solution using Google Cloud Run.
