Why are they removing support though?

Exactly this. He made an offer publicly, which was accepted and legally binding. He overpaid substantially and proceeded to run the company into the ground.

He looks more intelligent than most project managers.

More importantly: why does God need glasses and where does he get them?

Shit, I don't know yet how everything is connected, but I've noticed that with the rise of Linux on the desktop, the temperature on earth is rising too! /s

Regarding location for the purpose of determining what language to render the app or website in: the article skips over the fact that users can configure their preferred and fallback languages in the browser. It's perfectly possible to access that in JavaScript and render the app or website accordingly. You don't need location information for that. In fact, it totally ignores the fact that some people live (or are visiting) in a region but don't necessarily speak the language. I find it super annoying when google presents me with suggestions or ads for local businesses when I'm on vacation.

Anything that needs to be configured with YAML, and Kubernetes in particular.

I mean I get the whole Infrastructure as Code hype (although I have never witnessed or heard of a situation where an entire cluster needed to be revived from scratch), but it should be very possible to make a gui that writes the YAML for you.

I don't want to memorize every possible setting and what it does and if someone makes a typo in the config (or in the white space, as it's YAML) everything is borked.

Call me old-fashioned but the graphical ui of something like octopus deploy was a thousand times more user friendly imho.
