The reason to run your WAR+Tomcat or JAR file in a container is that it is portable across different Linux distributions. The container appears to have a certain environment to your application, regardless of the Linux it is running on.

Some containers launch a single process, your process.

Some containers launch a "linux distribution" sans kernel, really launching the /sbin/init process, such that you now think you have a complete Linux system, as root, with files and libraries laid out in a way that you expect -- regardless of the conventions of the actual Linux system running your container.

A container can be as cheap as launching a process, since that is all a container really does. It launches a process with a lot of parameters and controls that set up the environment, network, isolated process table, your own root user zero, your own root directory, etc. It's just kernel features that isolate your process so that it has a controlled view of what the network looks like, what the filesystem is, etc.

The other reason to package as a container instead of a WAR or JAR is that other DevOps or sys admins can install your container without knowing anything about Java. They don't even have to know that you are using Java. I can get a container and install it and run it so that it does some specific function, and I don't care what technology the developers used. Java, Python, PHP, C, God forbid Perl, it doesn't matter. Maybe the container has a mini-Linux distribution inside it. Maybe not. I don't care, I don't know. The container just plugs in and runs. Think of a Container as the benefits of a WAR / JAR but for a larger world outside of Java.

A container is also a great way to package a legacy application. Or an application using a technology unfamiliar to those deploying it on servers. Your container has all of your dependencies. A specific Java. Specific dependencies, regardless of what the host system has.
It is also possible that they were looking for 'questions that indicate cluster membership'.

RWA could be defined as "tendency to trust in authority, value obeying rules, and dislike people who break rules". It's a bad name, as someone in a left wing country with high RWA would tend to disapprove of right wing protesters for instance.

So in designing the test you put together a huge list of questions that vagually relate to RWA, collect answers, and then look for ones that tend to cluster together. 'People who answer yes to this tend to answer yes to these others'. You then remove the ones that show poor correlation, and you have a test.

I'm a LastPass user and have never used 1Password, but is 1Password really better than the competition (like lastpass)? Buying your only competitor and shutting it down is great, but buying one of many similar competitors just seems like it would bolster adoption of the others and improve their market position more than it would improve yours.
I think this is in fact a good omen for the Standalone version of 1P. If Apple is going to be using that, you know they will not discontinue it as I was fearing they'll do some day or another.
Automated KPIs collection and visualization of the funnels
Seems obvious, these managers store the passwords in an encrypted file. Requiring one (hopefully) really good password to lock it all down plus a 2nd factor option like ttop or fingerprint.

I only have to remember one long complex password that I have never used anywhere else and that secures and encrypts all my other passwords. And rather than searching and copy pasting, a browser extension can fill in passwords when I request.

Add to that, a password manager generates a long and complex and unique password for every account I have so I don't have to make one up or go to another source to create it.

And one of the coolest features, though it doesn't work everywhere and I am only familiar with LastPass, is its ability to automatically change passwords. On certain sites, I can tell it to rotate all the passwords in my file. It logs in and makes the changes for me.

It's not clear what you're asking or why. I'd think about it the same way I'd think about storing passwords or anything else.
I would do both.

Make a build container that pulls in the Git hash that you want to build/test against. You can keep your dependencies, build process, unit and func tests in the container. Your dev team can use the same container image to build and test in the same way that you do, pulling in the latest code from Git and running a docker build. Now nobody needs to set up their environment because it's all just in the Docker image in the same way.

You don't need all those build and test files in production, so you can build a new "deploy container" with just the artifacts from your build process. I would also record the versions of your dependencies, as well as the SHA hash of the build/test container you used, and the SHA hash of the Git repos you pulled from. You can also set things like flyway migrations to run each time the container runs.

Now you can deploy this second container somewhere. You can then use the same build/test container you used before to run func tests against the deployed container, to double check it works in your deployed environment.

For one I’ve found that Docker containers provide some teachable moments for people trying to learn (or who should already know better) about the CI/CD pipeline.

Docker images take away a lot of wishful thinking. Some people will, at least occasionally, refuse to take responsibility for a problem until you can demo it for them locally. If you can’t demo a problem locally you’re already in a world of pain.

Call it a good fence for good neighbors, if that works for you.
I'd be very hesitant to make that conclusion. Much more likely is that more nuanced middle-ground questions are a lot more open to individual interpretation than the "extreme" statements, and thus give you a lot less "signal" in what you are trying to measure - even some of these could be seen as widely open to interpretation.

I'm guessing the scale (rather than agree/disagree) is attempting to compensate for this somewhat.

(Caveat: I'm a scientist but not with a background in anything close to Psychology; I've seen but not written these sorts of tests).
Your request is akin to giving a developer the requirement to "make the thing" and expecting a fully-formed application that does exactly what you were thinking at scale.

And my wife, as well. She's not a punk, but she buys cassettes and listens to them, too. I assume because it brings back memories.

Used ones from the record store she picks up for about $2. New releases run more, but I don't ask.

But she listens to them. We picked up a huge box of blank 90-minute NOS Maxell tapes at an antiques store recently, and she's busy recording her records to tape so she can listen to them via Bluetooth in her car (via battery powered BT dongle).

She picked up several brand new tape players and boom boxes in Japan recently to make sure she has something to play her cassettes on. Though I've seen some at Amoeba, too. But they're just way more expensive in L.A.

Never try to understand the logic of a hardcore music fan.

It's not just the 12 kids. With the money spent Thailand is paying for a belief in the minds of its people: that the government would do the same for their kid.

I'd argue that this kind of belief is extremely valuable for a country's economics as a whole. In order for the populace to be economically productive (and save 50000 kids from dying of diarrheal diseas) you need to create a safe, reliable, and predictable environment. Governments insuring against events like kids getting lost in caves is the way that they get that.

For large projects, fat JARs are slow to build. Unless you bundle JARs inside the JAR and use a special classloader, like Spring Boot... I don't use them at all because it's a pain.

Ok well quite a few hundred reviewers have read the book and consider it virulently militaristic, and some go further considering it jingoistic, and fascist. I don't know enough about Heinlein, but I kinda rather doubt he was advocating fascism. But it would not surprise me if he thought civilian control of the military was backwards, because I've had this conversation with members of the military. And some of them have overtly expressed people who have not picked up a weapon and used it to defend the country (I guess by shooting and killing, but perhaps merely by taking the risk to their own life) should not have a right to vote. And that is directly expressed in Starship Troopers as a matter of public policy. If you don't serve, you aren't a citizen, you cannot vote, and you cannot be a member of the government.

This may not have been what Heinlein intended to convey. But I tend not to find an author's advocacy relevant when reading fiction. I see the author as giving me rope to hang myself if I choose, rather than considering that they advocate anything at all. As I read it, militarism so permeated that society that the only possible contrarian point of view would come from the reader. And I thought that was the whole point of the book. It doesn't matter whether that's Heinlein's intent.

If it's true Heinlein just didn't convey the vast majority of Federal Service was non-military, and yet all we have to go on is the exclusively militaristic bent as written, that deficiency might make the book all the better just to have the ensuing ideological battles and discussions that resulted. And this book generated quite a lot of them at the time, and I see it as overwhelmingly beneficial.

A likely metaphor to the non-citizens of Starship Troopers are those who of their own volition do not enter into military service, do not vote, do not participate in government - exist in large numbers in the U.S. Most Americans now do not vote, they're simply along for the ride, and in effect aren't citizens in any meaningful way (other than perhaps they can't be deported - but in Starship Troopers it was a world government so there's no concept of deportation anyway).

OpenKeychain and Password-store (paired with a yubikey) is the entire reason I use Android over iOS. I really wish there was hardware GPG key solution for the iphone.
You can also sync 1Password with Dropbox and avoid a subscription or the cloud service.

It also has a neat feature where it can discover other peers on the network and auto-sync the password for use when the clients are offline.

Overall, the quality of 1Password is amazing and I'm sure that had a lot to do with the fact they get paid to do it to. Open source is great and I don't know if KeePassXC has a revenue model but I personally think my money spent on 1Password was put to good user.

TRY Not TO LAUGH or GRIN
I found this especially disturbing:

The office of Thailand’s prime minister has thanked the tech entrepreneur Elon Musk for his offers of help. Officials praised his mini-submarine but said it was not needed. Musk praised the "outstanding rescue team" but questioned the expertise of the official who turned down his submarine.

He inserts himself into the event (but contributed nothing), requiring the Prime Minister to kiss his ass (again, when he contributed nothing), then criticizes the people who saved the kids for not using his idea.

I know talking about voting is generally forbidden, but there is no reason for the parent to be flagged. It's not my favorite post ever on HN, but criticizing Musk isn't a violation of HN rules. Several other posts that criticizes him are also flagged (though some of them are pretty useless comments).
The challenge I see in my day-to-day work is that people talk much about wanting collaboration, openness, sharing, cooperation, etc. However, their actions do not follow their words, and they often revert to protectionist, silo'ed or defensive behaviors as some kind of response.

I agree completely and have no argument with change cannot be forced. And I also agree that most of the time, the thing you have more control over to change is yourself and your environment.

My only thought was, there must be some kind of equilibrium or balance that tips one way or another here. For example, if you're in a place that cannot achieve what you as an individual see as best - so you change your position - what if everyone does that and then nobody is left to do the work in that place?

That might force the place to change. Or, it might just attract people who don't care about how that place is. So in that regard, while it might have been better for you as an individual, and in a sense, by leaving you did that place a favor by demonstrating your convictions, you also didn't stay to work through the challenges and maybe improve the place you were.

So, I'm saying that, if everyone does that, is anyone staying to fix things in place? Or does the world really work if everyone gravitates to only the places where everything is working well and we leave behind the places where things don't work so well?
You have quite a few objections and I will try to address them one at a time.

>With all due respect, that's probably because you're not someone who's having to survive on it.

I have a lot of respect and empathy for those working multiple minimum wage jobs to make sure their children have food to eat. With that said, whenever I consider a policy I start with how I think the world ought to be and then I make considerations for how the world really is. Hence why I say it is probably a good thing that we have the minimum wage.

>I don't believe that population is significant, or more significant than those that do need it to be a living wage.

Data would be nice, but I would guess that the long term gain in increased experience from more jobs happening would be better than the marginal increased income for those with the now higher minimum wage.

>I do not believe that having a non-living wage job would help, because James would still need to survive, and on a non-living wage, he's going to have to supplement that income somewhere.

James would need to live somehow, by keeping the min. wage low, we give James the chance to gain a work history at a low paying job (while he is provided supplemental support) so he can transition to a better paying job.

>A better thing for James would be "Ban the Box" laws, which prevent potential employers from asking about criminal history if it's not relevant to the job.

Ban the Box is a bad idea because it hurts young black men[0]. tl;dr when employers cannot know that a person does or doesn't have a criminal record, they don't hire from the populations with high rates of criminal records (young black men).

>And I don't. Just about every example for why it shouldn't happen comes down to business wants cheap labor. And that's not an argument that I am sympathetic to.

I feel like you missed an important assumption I made, business will never hire a person if the value that labor produces is less than the cost of the wage. The min. wage sets a floor on the value a person and this hurts people that cannot produce more value than the floor. This is different from the fact that a business seeks to minimize costs of which labor is a major one. That is capitalism, some business seek to pay people that absolute minimum they can to cut costs. Others (like QuikTrip and In-N-Out) pay a premium for better workers to get better value.

What is your suggested fix for businesses wanting cheap labor?

It sounds like you have views that are controversial in your social environment. That's not authritarian - that's anti-authoritarian.

If you had those views because everyone around you had them, and didn't like people disagreeing because it was outside social norms, then you would be authoritarian.

In Germany, people with high RWA are probably very anti-rascist for instance. It's an interesting metric.
