Hi Ahmet, thank you for your comment and feedback.
Unfortunately, some interviewers and prev/future colleagues in the industry will continue to call it minions, this is why it is here. Also it is important to understand history for easier future integration and conversations.

I’ll take your word for it. I have been working at Google on Kubernetes since past 3 years, never heard it being called minions. (:

It's probably better to point out, that nodes were called minions for a time. That's what I heard in most of the talks and how it's written in some other references.
