why does Terraform ignore changes I make in the console?
Terraform only notices changes when you run a plan or refresh. If ignore_changes is configured, Terraform will intentionally skip certain attributes. Otherwise, console changes will appear as drift the next time Terraform evaluates state. Manual changes and Terraform don’t mix well long-term. TakeawRead more

If
ignore_changesis configured, Terraform will intentionally skip certain attributes. Otherwise, console changes will appear as drift the next time Terraform evaluates state.Manual changes and Terraform don’t mix well long-term.
Takeaway: Terraform works best as the single source of truth.

Pods are ephemeral, and anything stored locally disappears on restart.
If credentials are written to the filesystem instead of injected dynamically, they won’t survive restarts. Secrets, identity bindings, or token projection are the correct approach.
Takeaway: Never rely on local storage for credentials in containers.
See lessWhy does my Docker container run as root even though I specified a user?
The base image or entrypoint likely overrides the user setting. If the specified user doesn’t exist or the entrypoint switches back to root, Docker silently falls back. Checking the final image configuration usually reveals this. Takeaway: User settings only work if nothing overrides them later.

See lessWhy does my Kubernetes pod show ImagePullBackOff even though the image exists?
When Kubernetes reports ImagePullBackOff, it’s almost never saying the image doesn’t exist. What it’s actually telling you is that it can’t pull the image, usually because it doesn’t have permission to do so. This most commonly happens with private registries.

When Kubernetes reports
ImagePullBackOff, it’s almost never saying the image doesn’t exist. What it’s actually telling you is that it can’t pull the image, usually because it doesn’t have permission to do so.This most commonly happens with private registries. Even if you created an image pull secret, Kubernetes won’t automatically use it unless it’s attached to the service account the pod is running under, and it must exist in the same namespace. Another surprisingly common issue is a tiny typo or case mismatch in the image name or tag. Container registries are strict, and Kubernetes won’t try to guess what you meant.
People often waste time rebuilding or re-pushing images when the real issue is simply authentication.
Takeaway: Treat
See lessImagePullBackOffas a credentials or reference problem before assuming the image itself is broken.
