    I think this was actually the first time someone put it this way and me reading it. I felt this way for years but never did I actually stop and think about this in such a manner. Maybe also because it is discouraged to talk about it.

    I think this deserves its own post.

      Thanks for the complement … and I’m glad my hot take resonates. If you like you can paste this into your own post (and just link back here or whatever if you want to cite me).

      Your own experience realising that you’ve felt this but not been able to talk about it could be a very interesting addition or framing and is also probably deserving of its own post!

        Aww, you guys are sweet!

        Kidding aside, you’re definitely onto something vis a vis insecure and quite likely incompetent middlemen!

          As a middleman that’s certainly not insecure and hopefully not incompetent I don’t know what to say.

          BUT I agree with most of it, as long as it doesn’t apply to me.

              Or me! Let’s jump in a convo and discuss this. Post this in our Kubernetes or have one of our interns do it. Let’s say “this afternoon and I will cancel anyway”-ish?
