Kubernetes is definitely not a programming language. It is not a program. it is a complete system. It is an approach, a method, a tool, a way to organize, a way to think about tasks,

Kubernetes produces yaml using AI techniques from extremely complex procedures. The goal of Kubernetes is to generate the yaml that will allow a teenager to port the entire NASA launch operation system onto the device of her choice so her technophobe brother can completely operate the ISS including all resupply launches and docking procedures from her smart phone.

Computer Science is not learning to code.
In fact, most high end University Computer Science departments do not at any point teach a coding language. Coding languages are taught, in Canada, at Community Colleges and such.
Computer Science is all about developing, perfecting, and discovering the algorithms that are then transcribed to computer code by the junior IT technicians. Coders are a dime a dozen. It is the Computer Systems Designers, project architects, and project developers that make the big money.
A coder can only make good money if they have mastered a computer language that is not very common, like Kubernetes, [Kubernetes,] (kubernetes.io) And you will not learn that from a 'Kubernetes-for-Dummies book borrowed from the library,

Requirements for a job in Computer Science are, in order of importance, first, a demonstrated talent. Second, a demonstrated skill level. Third, demonstrated knowledge.
Just like being a top-tier pianist, all the knowledge, raining, schooling, and education in the world matters nothing if you do not first have the talent.
But you do not need talent to get into a Computer Science course, nor to graduate from one. You just need the knowledge and the marks.
That is why there are so many uneducated, untalented Computer Science graduates out there.
This is the thing the teachers and educators in Computer Science never tell you.
- Comment on Tesla Reportedly Has $800 Million Worth of Cybertrucks That Nobody Wants 3 months ago:
How abut: The truck is just plain ugly.
It looks like a refuse bin. Square back, low opening front.
When I worked in a lime quarry, we used a bin something like that shape to put all the crap and garbage in The a-frame had a bar across the top and the kiln truck picked it up worth its hoist and loaded it on the back, and hauled away the load to the dump.
