Today in Labor History July 3, 1883: Franz Kafka was born. He died at age 40, of tuberculosis, before any of his major works were published. He was born to a middle-class, German-Czech Jewish family, but declared himself an atheist by the time he was a teen. As a young man, he participated in the Klub mladých, a Czech anarchist, anti-militarist, and anti-clerical organization. Supposedly, he wore a red carnation to school to show his support for socialism. Much of his fiction explores themes of alienation, guilt and power, and is often characterized by protagonists faced with bizarre and often incomprehensible bureaucratic nightmares. His own life was filled with anxiety and self-doubt that provoked him to burn roughly 90% of his own manuscripts, and much of the 10% that survived was lost or never published. In his will, he instructed his friend, and fellow writer, Max Brod, to destroy his work. Brod ignored this request and helped get “The Trial,” “The Castle,” and “America” published. In 1962, the film version of “The Trial” came out, starring Anthony Perkins as Joseph K, screenplay and directed by Orson Welles. Most film historians and buffs place Welle’s “Citizen Kane near, or at, the top of the list for all-time greatest films ever made. However, Welles considered this film to be even better. And I agree.

Kafkas Einfluss auf die Kunst, nicht nur auf die Literatur, ist unschätzbar. Kafkas Werk inspiriert Menschen aus Film, Theater und bildender Kunst. Sie sind nicht nur fasziniert von dem tiefen Wissen über die menschliche Psyche, das in den Werken des Prager Schriftstellers festgehalten ist, sondern auch von seiner grenzenlosen Vorstellungskraft, der Plastizität seiner Vision und seiner Form – einfach und doch so bedeutungsvoll.

after this project I can say:

the strimzi #kafka operator is real nice. feels kubernetesy, smooth features, good documentation, example work.

the #opensearch operator shows grudging admittance that kubernetes exists. ;)

#clickhouse is a great tool. highly recommended.

open telemetry collectors are partially not mature enough. needs work still.

Today in Labor History March 31, 1809: Nikolai Gogol, the Russian-Ukrainian novelist, was born. Gogol was one of the first authors to use surrealism and absurdism (see “The Nose,” “The Overcoat,” and “Nevsky Prospekt.”) Many of his works satirized Russian political corruption, like “Dead Souls,” and the “Government Inspector.” He influenced several generations of writers, including Dostoevsky, Bulgakov, Nabakov, Kafka and Flannery O’Connor. The gypsy punk band, Gogol Bordello, took their name from him.
