Culture
- Found out about some wine documentaries when riding bicycles:

- danluu has a bunch of fascinating articles, found from Individuals matter.
- rawtext.club: “Not cool. Not easy. Not big. rawtext.club is what you make it.”
Technology
- There are a lot of ways to create Kubernetes on metal, the Kubernetes Cluster Lifecycle SIG has a project underway called cluster API:
Today, over 100 Kubernetes distributions and installers have been created, each with different default configurations for clusters and supported infrastructure providers. SIG Cluster Lifecycle saw a need for a single tool to address a set of common overlapping installation concerns and started kubeadm.
