@Viss honestly this was also the case long before k8s and docker, those tools just let clueless people deploy things insecurely in entirely new and fucked up ways, as opposed to the old fucked up ways

Ex-farm worker here.

We need to talk about this whole "But a living wage for farm workers would spike the cost of food!" thing.

Not true AT ALL.

Y'all don't understand how fast experienced farm workers are.

The average tomato picker pulls 650lbs per hour.

At $20/hr, that's $0.03/lb for labor.

There should be an episode of every Star Trek where the whole ship falls apart because Scottie, Geordi, Miles, and B'Elanna have been repeatedly forced to do a two day job in two hours.

A few things I notice about this as a fellow NYC teacher.

1. This guy goes all out for his kids, keeping the park reservation slots at that location, which is one of the best in the city is hard. He's on top of the paperwork, and going the extra mile so they can do their sports.

2. This was racial profiling most likely. Just targeting kids because they aren't white.
