Day one

To try to get some traction, I've decided to forego editing for the first few. That means the first few will be a bit more raw, and I'll have to be mindful of what I put on screen. I'm looking to start with how we evolved to containers. I did one run already, but I think it needs more focus -- I talked a bit about VMs and bare metal, but I think it distracts and would be better handled in a different video. I did a strong run, and put it up. It likely needs edits and some polish, but I think its a good start. I have to review a couple things, like creating an intro and extro, and figuring out things like thumbnails. It'll come, it just takes a bit of time.

I've done a first run at background and what came before containers, and why containers are a good fit for our modern situation. It went okay, but I need some better illustrations and also have to do some editing, which means learning an editor. I kept my commitment to #100DaysOfKubernetes, and I'm now up to day 10 in the Anais videos. I also think I'm going to approach my journey a bit differently then Anais -- she had a few theory based videos and then she dived deeply into practical stuff. I think I'd like to do a bit of background, do a bit of practical and then build up the bits how Kubernetes does its thing. I like that Anais videos are shorter -- usually under ten minutes, and I'd like to aim for that. I also want to go through the list of "interesting sites" I've been building up for a while. I think this would make a good "short" video, where I review one or two sites for each segment. I might do some longer walk throughs or tutorials, and might try streaming a bit to see if there is any interest on that level. Most importantly, I need to start. My first video or three doesn't have to be perfect -- I'm not just learning about container stuff, but also about producing learning content and improving on myself. But taking the first step is the most important in this journey.
