I particularly liked "Katamari Damacy scheduling", but I would guess that at least some of the cultural references (dilithium crystals, Marcellus Wallace) could be confusing to folks not steeped in a particularly nerdy subset of American-ish culture.
I think if references and jokes are landing for (say) 80% of your target audience then you're doing pretty well.
I liked the article. Interesting approach to scheduling as kind of a market exchange problem. It's cool to see what an infra service can look like when you ditch the constraints and path dependence that led to the "standard" cloud architecture and build something totally new. The user experience seems like multi-tenant Borg, but nimbler.
