Why Kubernetes lasted

  • Google donated the Borg-shaped idea and every cloud had to speak it.
  • It is ugly YAML and it won anyway, which is how you know it is infrastructure.

Why Ruby on Rails lasted

  • It taught a decade of startups that a web app is a folder with opinions.
  • Shopify, GitHub, Basecamp, and a long tail of apps that still print money in Ruby.
