That's a fundamental problem with the approach OP is trying to sell. It's not solving any problem. It tries to sell a concept that is disconnected from technologies and real-world practices, requires layers of tech that solve no problem nor have any purpose, and doesn't even simplify anything at all.

I recommend OP puts aside 5 minutes to go through Cloudflare's docs on Cloudflare Workers that they released around a decade ago, and get up to speed on what it actually takes to put together stateless functions and durable objects. Dragging Kubernetes to the problem makes absolutely no sense.

Where did Nathan say he's using Kubernetes? I think I missed something. His comment describes a new alternative to Kubernetes. He's presenting stateless functions and stateful actors as supplementing containers. He knows all about Cloudflare Workers -- Rivet is explicitly marketed as an alternative to it.

It feels like you didn't really read his comment yet are responding with an awful lot of hostility.
