I just, uh, borrow them from a friend to see how they work on my rig, nothing else will give you a better representation, everything else will just be a guess.
I don't like the idea of replacing one well known YAML schema (k8s as much as I hate it is well known), with another YAML schema that is not well known. I think I'd rather use something to get away from YAML altogether, rather than just trade one for another. The reason helm and kustomize work well is that your existing k8s resource knowledge transfers, it sounds like it wouldn't with this thing.
I'd keep going until you see it again and try to solve it then. I wouldn't report an issue that you can't reproduce, some projects refuse to accept issues without a repro. Sometimes something weird happens and you don't know why and you'll never know, you just need to move on and keep building, if it's a real problem it'll come back.
Yeah but performance has way more to do with architecture than it does code readability. It doesn't matter how well you write your code, if it's an electron app it's going to use more ram than a native app. So I totally agree, but at the scale that it's a real problem it has more to do with architecture than the code in any given function.
Yeah, no one actually cares. Just look at phones, people don't actually stop using them when they aren't supported and don't care as long as it keeps working.
