Arvind is attending KubeCon for the first time. He’s on his own. Arvind: Wow, this is all so grand! Let’s find a place to sit and enjoy the day and find new friends maybe! Arvind finds his place.

Recently me and a friend were trying to debug a stackoverflow error in helm. We used a lot of print statements in the code and were reading the code and seeing the flow and checking where it just blew up.

Recently Helm 3 alpha version was released https://github.com/helm/helm/releases/tag/v3.0.0-alpha.1 🎉.

I think the first time I heard the term “Open Source” was when we were taught about different kinds of software in 12th grade. I still remember how we had so many defintions to remember, for terms like - proprietary, freeware, shareware, open source software. I’m able to recall only these terms. Also, the definitions had some similarities and I also remember getting confused about the differences and similarities between the terms.
