It would be great if you took some time to write about the question of climate change and energy waste.
In this regard it would be very interesting to better understand the impact tools like K8S have on global warming. Just from a pure practical POV I see many clusters burning a lot of CPU cycles with K8S processes that do nothing else than providing some kind of infrastructure for the real computing task.
I have seen K8S burning 50% and more CPU time - this with not one single payload operation, just doing its cluster thing!
This is a horrible waste of energy and we can not go ahead establishing such a bloated monstrosity as default data center OS of the future.
Not all data centers are 100% solar - I guess people in the field are LOL at this point knowing the realities. So I personally come to the conclusion that a thing like K8S is the opposite of what is needed in a world that is heading to a climate disaster. So many hours spent into optimizing the Linux kernel (successfully!) are nullified by a tool that wastes energy recklessly.
We need more than one article to help programmers of these tools understand why they should do their jobs with more love for future generations.
Also we need lots of articles about how to write efficient code that does not waste CPU cycles.
