junon274217dI could have sworn I read somewhere official that it was pronounced "En-jinx". I call it Engine-X anyway though, but I thought I was wrong about it.

N-gin-x. Seems pretty straightforward to my twisted english sensibilities.
The real question is how do *you* pronounce kubernetes? -
webapp63417d@10Dev I pronounce it like that too...
Apparently it is pronounced “engine x”: https://nginx.com/company/... -

I pronounce Kubernetes as coo-ber-neats but also found out it's coo-ber-net-ees (kuba-netis) -
rooter143114d@junon is this because of the amount of characters between k & s (kubernetis) (8 chars) like i10n for example or the pronouncation? Could almost be both. Or should I finally get some sleep?

rooter143114d@GiddyNaya, funny probably one of the only tech thingy I pronounced correctly from start seems.
Maybe your pronouncation is wrong because you actually read the docs instead of lame YouTube stuff.
Ubuntu has docs? 😂 I always use digital ocean docs for such stuff. They're awesome, their docs always work on a clean installation -
rooter143113d@junon sigh, not funny because it's true. I started to hate NoSQL and ORMs because people choose to learn the important part. Sql is not like css - of you don't understand sql you're fucked. I'm microservice apps I do use sql. It's bit harder with migrations, but hey, that expensive dba does not exist for nothing. Every company should hire a freelance dba once a week or month imo.. Developers only know 40%. Databases are art. People should take it serious
I know it's almost a rant but I know you worked at Uber. Xmpp heh, not a bad choice I guess. It has some benefits I guess
