CommentJava vs C#: Optimizing Docker for Kubernetes

That 11 PM Slack thread callout hit way too close to home. 😅

Seriously though, thank you for emphasizing the liveness probe vs. readiness probe distinction. I can’t tell you how many cascading failures I've seen because a liveness probe was pointing to a database health check, triggering a massive restart storm when the DB sneezed. Keeping the liveness probe strictly local to the runtime is an elite-tier tip that every K8s engineer needs to memorize.

Haha, glad (and sorry!) it hit home. The dreaded DB-dependent liveness probe is a classic rite of passage. Restart storms are brutal, and keeping that probe strictly local is the best way to keep a small sneeze from becoming a full-blown cold.
