The full-time job of keeping up with Kubernetes
There aught to be a name to the tendency that as tools get better and better, the more your time goes from having your mind in technical-space to social and news-space. It's like the authority to create goes from the individual first-principles (by necessity) maker, to the control over development being in the hands of an external group, and then all your time is spent keeping up with what they're doing. A similar thing happened with a lot of javascript frameworks. It also happened with the transition from building servers from the ground up, to it all being managed by AWS.
