Oh man! I'm laughing and crying at the same time. I had a very similar experience in my first "startup". It hurt me so bad, both financially and emotionally, that I could do another "startup" for 7 years.

Luckily, the next time I came across Steve Blank and YC Startup School materials and instead of burning all my cash over a two years I managed to FAIL my next three startups withing few weeks with a negligible cost.

Those books and articles saves your life and money!

This is yet another cautionary tale for founders.


Hmm! Interesting. I'm wondering if adding a test framework like kubebuilder is on the agenda. I'm not a great fan of it (kubebuilder) but the simple-to-use (in a relative term, i.e. as simple as it can get with Go) is a huge benefit. So you won't have to deploy after every build to see how your changes look like.


We don't currently support anything like Kubebuilder's envtest helper, but it is on our radar (and I finally got around to making an issue for it[0]). The rest of Kubebuilder's testing page seems to be general for Go's test framework (in which case Rust should have native equivalents).

I'm not sure about that, but the maintainers are very active and receptive so maybe make an issue? Better yet a PR.


I tend to agree! However, I think it has factored in the generated code as well. With something like Kubebuilder you won't have to write that many lines of code for a basic operator.


Sid, when can we expect the same thing happen at GitLab?

PS: I'm trailing the comments and it is very interesting to see how this post is turned into a competition about GitLab vs. GitHub vs. BitBucket. But fellas, this is not about tech, it's about the people who use it. In particular about a thriving community of talented and young developers who have been ignored, sanctioned, and betrayed over and over both domestically and internationally.


GitLab is looking into whether we may be able to obtain a similar license.

PS: I agree this post should be about GitHub and what they achieved for the thriving community of developers in Iran who are making things work despite their circumstances.
