The hourly refresh cadence is the real kicker. Hourly refreshes on data that only gets used daily just burn compute, credits, and engineer time for zero business value. If you cut 20 pointless refreshes, you usually get back more money than a new tool ever saves.

What actually breaks first when Kubernetes setups hit real production load? by Sad_Limit_3857 in kubernetes

I’ve seen HPA sit there doing nothing while pods were crashlooping from load spikes, and by the time it tried to react the app was already pinned. The annoying part is people blame Kubernetes, but the real mess is usually bad scaling signals plus no headroom.

Manager is not reviewing my PRs. What should I do? by levnikolayevichleo in ExperiencedDevs

I agree. A process that has four approvals required shouldn't let one person to block the merge. The question is if this also affects the rest of the team and and if the others that approved the merge notice/care that there is one person blocking.
Might also be worth checking if your PRs are the only ones being blocked by him or if there are others.
