Extremely slow times - from development to production, backend to frontend. Depending on how bad things are, you might catch the microservice guys complaining over microseconds from a team downstream, in front of a FE dev who’s spent his week optimizing the monotonically-increasing JS bundles with code splitting heuristics.

Of course, it was because the client app recently went over the 100MB JS budget. Which they decided to make because the last time that happened, customers abroad reported seeing “white screens”. International conversion dropped sharply not long after that.

It’s pretty silly. So ya, good times indeed. Time to learn k8s.
