11 tricks to improve your productivity and reduce your frustration with Kubernetes ...
summary
Title promises 11 tricks but speaker rattles off about 22 concrete tips: use kubectl wait to block until a Deployment is Available or endpoints exist, use kubectx/kubens to swap clusters and namespaces instantly, produce manifests with kubectl create --dry-run=client -o yaml instead of copy‑pasting, and build ad‑hoc images with nixer when you need curl/kshell/jq without writing a Dockerfile. Other specifics: kubectl explain and custom columns, k9s UI, kubectl patch vs set (strategic merge keys), rollout restart, scale to zero for cost savings, ExternalName cross‑namespace aliasing, gron for JSON.
