When you're taking a break from KubeCon prep and you ask your sister to record you shadowboxing so you can forget you just turned 40, but then her wonderful dog Olive has other plans.... Onward!

From photographing 500 weddings to Kubernetes. Whitney Lee's path into cloud-native is one of my favorites from our Heroku -supported book Kubernetes World: Finding Your Path. It's a reminder that there’s no “right” way into tech.

Before the fight, there’s a whole story no one sees. Ilham fought in Zamudio at an all-women’s event taking a stand against gender-based violence. The banner says it all: “Machista violence has no defense.” That’s why we can’t stay silent. Our voices are our weapons. Onward!

Ilham in the ring: level changes, elite footwork, feints, slips, counters, cardio, class. Make ’em miss, make ’em pay. She delivers! 🥊🔥

At KubeCon, Salman and I asked 40 people: “What’s the first tool you install on a fresh K8s cluster?” The answers were all over the place- which is what makes them so great! We run polls like this regularly at KubeFM / LearnKube. Wanna get featured? Let us know!

Which K8s deprecation hit your team hardest — and why? Dockershim? v1beta1 removals? Ingress-NGINX? At KubeCon, we asked Kat Cosgrove from Minimus and she instantly said Dockershim. Reply with yours!

2025 has kicked my ass multiple time. Learning hip hop dance has reminded me: you get good by being bad first. Accept the fall, get back up, keep moving. Onward!
