I am once again asking for a moratorium on calling something an "operating system" unless it is an actual operating system
it runs on k8s. k8s runs on Linux. Linux is the operating system.
I get that it's tempting to call yourself an "operating system" as a way of signalling "we have big ambitions, bigger than a library, bigger than a framework, bigger than a platform..."
but...just stop. it's annoying and misleading. your GitHub repo is 60% TypeScript. you built a fancy GUI frontend to k8s.
Feels like some company who has zero trust in its developers, would roll out these. And that's your env.
I'm a bit out of the loop so I'm not sure this might already be a thing on AWS.
cloud²?
