It still works, I've just tried.

On Google Maps Web on Linux Firefox, when I search for фермерське господарство, I get autocomplete results. Clicking on one fills the search bar and drops a pin on the map. The search bar remains filled, but the pin disappears a second later, and the left sidebar shows a generic description rather than the label. It seems like these pins are only half-present on the Google Maps servers.
Apparently these are false alarms: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30528022

> OP, why do you think a farm business (which gmaps are showing the location of) should be in the same place where farm land is? These simply seem to be the addresses where a "farm business" is registered, as can be confirmed on a company-info-aggregator site [1]... To answer your point about why these seem different (e.g. you cannot report them), I think it's because they are automatically scraped by google from the official company-info sites in each country. Seems to be a similar situation in other countries, as far as I can tell. [1] this is the info of the first item on gmaps I get - address matches the location I'm shown https://youcontrol.com.ua/catalog/company_details/21897611/

> P.S. Those marks still look weird nevertheless. Not reportable or edible. The only article they link to is useless. Maybe it's worth fixing.

k8s takes some time to roll out on a global scale i would assume
If it's an update to the Docker images, that normally takes a couple minutes, if it's a rolling deploy. It is possible to turn off the rolling deploy, but there will be downtime.
Google uses neither k8s nor Docker internally. From my knowledge, a change like this can take anywhere from a couple of minutes to a few hours to roll globally, depending on how much support was already in place.

>Google uses neither k8s nor Docker internally.

It's so weird when people just go on the internet and lie about how things work with such utter confidence. No 'I believe', no 'if things are still done that way' just pure lies typed as fact.

Should be an account ban, really.

(Them, not you.)

What did I say that's incorrect? When I said "If it's an update to the Docker images", I was speaking hypothetically.
>I was speaking hypothetically.

There are well established grammatical constructions that indicate hypothetical speaking and you didn't use any of them.
