Since some of the proported features of containers is portability and consistentency/reproducibility between environments, the idea here is that you want to make sure your develop environment is as close to the deployment environment as possible. In addition, if you want to do prototype development, quickly try and test new ideas, and iterate on that, it's nice to go through that without rebuilding and deploying the container to a test/production environment. Do all of that right where you do your development.
I think the idea is that the one who would feel offended by this joke, could also only see the trope and not the fact it was rejected. And if you dare to explain it, you automagically end up in a deadlock.

It also unlocks the tactic “I will play dumb for a while so you don’t feel too smart anymore”. If you want to continue to do good, don’t open up for stupid attacks — politics 101.
You could, but then maybe you have some editor-specific settings you'd also want to tie to particular project.

And if you're working with multiple projects in multiple languages, why bother learning each language's equivalent of virtualenv (assuming it has any), when there's an universal method available?
First, (as I understood) you indicated that the market share decline and the layoffs were somehow related. Given that the graph started in 2009, 1 year after Chrome was first released and only the last datapoint is after the date, I don't think they're related at all. We all know that Chrome captured the IE/Firefox market share in the whole last decade and that's what the graph's showing.

Second, your concept of rapid decline clearly differs from mine. That is an eleven year decline and I don't think it's "rapid" at all for a browser.
The problem there is the alcohol. Perform an extraction with a less volatile solvent. Even cutting the alcohol with glycerin would probably work.
Because it is a Python specific thing. Docker works with all programming languages and that's it.

If you are full stack or work with multiple programming languages there is no need to learn the "equivalent" of virtualenv everywhere else.

Also with docker there is no setup/installation involved. You just pull the image and that is it.

Also virtualenv requires that you already have pip/python installed. Docker requires nothing (apart from itself). So you can instantly launch Java/Node/Erlang/Haskell whatever without any SDK/libs installed.
I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for that to happen in any reasonable time frame.

It's not just that there's a proprietary Apple CPU (with e.g. power-saving features that might also be more or less proprietary, although I don't know how uniform those are among ARM processors). If there's also e.g. an Apple-proprietary GPU or any other components with no specifications or driver source available, there's going to be endless catchup to play for open source support. And if those components are Apple-only, there's almost certainly going to be no incentive for Apple to release any information to outside developers.

Getting code to run on, or even optimized for, an M1 CPU is probably the smallest of the obstacles.
Was very much into it from like 1999-2008. Taught lindy classes locally for a number of years. Frankie, and notably Dawn Hampton as well, were huge inspirations. Until knee problems forced me to quit, lindyhop/dancing was probably the most joyful activity I've experienced.
> and Brave famously migrated away from building a browser using Electron

Is that relevant? Do you think that Google was going to refuse to license Widevine and then Brave made the migration to CEF and they said, "now we know you're serious"?

It's not user security that's causing Google to refuse to license Widevine to this project. The response Google gives is not, "I'm sorry but we're not supporting an Electron solution like this", it's "I'm sorry but we're not supporting an Open Source solution like this."

In fact, if you read the full email exchange, the suggestion that the Widevine licensing team gives is to move to a proprietary Electron fork that will be even slower to receive security patches than the upstream codebase would be. So it's definitely not the Electron/security part that Google is upset about.
Sure, but where do you stop with this line of thinking? What if the aliens are giant gas clouds that have trouble with the whole idea of planets? What if the aliens are fluctuations in plasma flows inside a star and don't realise there's anything outside their environment?

As far as we know, there's nothing out there. As far as we know, we're the most advanced life form in the entire universe (for a given definition of "advanced"). As far as we know, every exoplanet is teeming with civilisations. We know nothing. So if we are engaged in speculating about aliens, then speculating that they're probably like us, while allowing that they may not be, seems to me to be the only sensible thing to do.
I think most people realize the futility of trying to apply human morality to non-human animals.

No. Maybe deleting the tweet but not banning the account is a better idea.

Vpatch Success
There are also aspects that should be considered in my opinion

1°/ individual intelligence and technological innovation is not necessary an ultimate achivement that enables competitive advantage : human beings may be individually smart (compared to some other species) yet the collective intelligence of humanity is rather poor (which translates to the unability to solve collective problems such as sustainable management of our finite natural resources (e.g. oil) or of the consequences of our activity (e.g. biodiversity fall and climate change)). I suspect humanity will experience in a few decades a major regression (if not extinction) which could be interpreted as natural selection because of lack of collective intelligence. The same could also happen to other civilizations and maybe technological innovation the way we see it today is not necessary a ultimate achievement !

2°/ even if some other intelligent species would exist, maybe they would not have the same need to communicate, the same need or will to travel, the same need or will to innovate, etc.

3°/ even if some civilizations could be infinitely smart both individually and collectively and have enough genius to implement all engineering allowed by the laws of physics and have the will to implement it, maybe the laws of physics together with the nature/amount of natural resources on a typical planet do not enable such intergalactic space travels ! Sure, we were able to fly to the moon and we can make 5nm transistors while our ancestors would never have believed it could be done and it might make us dream that "everything is possible because genius and engineering have no limits", yet I would still be careful and such claims sounds more like religious faith than science. People need to understand the enormous distances we are talking about here and we need to remain humble that maybe it is and will remain forever an obstacle :)
Extreme Privacy: What It Takes to Disappear [Book]
I wrote this article a while back that compares setting up a Python development environment for web development with and without Docker: https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/setting-up-a-python-developme...

The TL;DR is there's a lot of things to set up yourself without Docker in order to run a typical web application and it's different depending on what OS / version you use. Some of these things are unrelated to Python too, such as running PostgreSQL, Redis, etc. but these are very important to your overall application.

Docker unifies that entire set up and the barrier of entry is installing Docker once and then learning a bit about it.
Have you tried docker on Windows? It's even worse.

On OSX I only had problems with GUI running in docker. I was used to sharing X between linux host and docker container also running linux.

For some projects, the only working solution I found was to run a VNC server in docker.
Specific example: in a docker container, run a GUI built with Kivy and view the window on the OSX host. If anyone manages to do this without VNC, I'd like to know how!

The other thing about a paid messenger service is that you not only have to pay the small fee, but convince your friends and family to pay as well, not to mention getting them to believe that the app is trustworthy and won't result in sketchy charges. This makes it so much easier to pitch free messaging apps, since you can always tell them to uninstall it if they don't like it.
yes, all these points are quite true.

but the elephant in the room is that there are perfectly acceptable ways to make money off of an open source project and HELP them keep afloat by regular DONATIONS/man power/hosting/etc.
Yea - I get where you're coming from - you can't rebuild the container, but each team member can reuse the same container - which is at least a step towards being fully reproducible.
It lets you do dev work in an environment that matches prod (and your teammates' environments) as closely as possible.

It's frustrating at best and catatrophic at worst when you have code working on your machine, deploy to prod, and then discover incompatibility.
The government is not an individual- appropriate morality and responsibility at scale are different then as an individual. Additionally, if insurance / the government agrees to pay for a procedure that serves as a form of confirmation for the end user - after all, the department of health and human services approved the procedure!

Respectfully, this logic reminds me of the leaps commonly seen in crackpot conspiracy theories. I am highly skeptical of any supposed connection between economic equality and increased civil unrest, let alone polygamy.

Critical thinking time. Is there an established link between female self-esteem and polygamy? Let's suppose there is, does polygamy actually hurt communities? Where's the evidence for that? If women are more well-off, is it a zero-sum game that makes men less well-off? If it is zero-sum, are economically insecure young men any more likely to cause civil unrest than economically insecure young women?

To no small extent, this is something of the point in this case. These jobs straight up shouldn't exist because they're simply not profitable and many of them never will be; we're seeing companies with no hope of becoming properly profitable trying to push their costs onto their own employees, rather than simply vanishing as they should.

Investment capital is what they burn while they try to become profitable, and if that doesn't work, the company should vanish or find another investor willing to take the gamble.

You could do that already with VMs and SSH. Sure it is a bit easier with Docker, but that is not the big advantage.

I like that the website is very user friendly and has a good flow of information that is easy and quick to digest.

One thing I would suggest is adding citations and sources for the information given. Perhaps tucked away at the bottom or have it hidden until some event trigger. I'm extremely hesitant of believe information at face value.

For sources, I would recommend scholarly articles and research published in peer-reviewed journals, since the people who care enough to check the sources will probably also want them to have academic standards and not just be a random blog post or news article.
A little bit off-topic, but I hope it's relevant enough: can someone who's well-versed in Docker give me some pointers as to how I can use it in a better way? Let me elaborate.

I'm a bit of an old fart when it comes to software development. I prefer stable, slowly evolving solutions. I am a fan of the role of classical distributions. I abhor bundling every piece of software with all its particular versioned dependencies until everything works. I'm not gonna change. And that means I'm probably not the type to use Docker to deploy anything. That being said, I do see great value in it as a way for sysadmins to let semi-trusted people run their own OS on shared hardware without stepping on each other's feet. I love that it lets all of us run each our OS of choice on our compute machines at work. But that's just it: when I use Docker, I pretend it's a VM. I really would like to learn to use it in a better and more appropriate way, but whenever I try to seek out information, quality search results are absolutely covered in garbage 10-second-attention span "just type this until it works" blogposts.

Any pointers?

(Alternative question: are there some cleaner solutions than Docker out there for the workflow I describe above?)
In some sense, the additional connectivity has (or seems to have) worsened those social structures. Namely, Twitter and co have groomed us to hate each other much more (more efficiently?) than traditional media--even cable news--had ever done. Of course, at this point traditional media are really stepping up their game. I'm assuming of course that we're ready to admit our hatred issue and that we're not still pretending that our hatred for the other side is good, moral, just, and indeed the only way to cure racism, cancer, etc? Hopefully I'm not being too optimistic. And it's not just hate for the sake of ad clicks; previously lobbying was a problem and now we have lobbying plus social media giants selling influence over us (including our votes) to the highest bidder. Maybe this all boils down to ad driven revenue model such that we can address it with regulation, and the positive aspects of the Internet can remain?
It also could be as entertaining as watching paint dry for them.

i think the reason people assume aliens would want to visit us is because they are vaguely aware of human history, which is characterized by more advanced societies, driven by a need to expand, subjugating or destroying less advanced societies. the very idea that aliens might exist and that they might be more advanced than us leads directly to the question, "would they do us like, say, europe did the americas?"
As it is hard to swallow for what happened in 1989, that was a fraction of people, not all people as a monolithic sense. And that fraction is not strong enough to overturn the existing ruling class with military support.

Because projects are seldom as simple as that, potentially having lots of other kinds of dependencies (a directory structure, system libraries/command, symlinks, other services running, etc).

And let's be honest, virtualenvs and all the various ways they're managed and updated and such aren't really bulletproof either.

It's really, really refreshing how much "yeah I managed to break my dev environment" or "I followed the wiki for how to start developing your project but it 'didn't work'" can be avoided if it's just "run docker(-compose)?".

And this is especially true for junior developers, who are probably fresh out of college and won't be familiar with lots of the tooling that exists in the world. Not that docker is a simple tool, but it can hide so much complexity that it is easier to just show people how to docker run and docker build and such.

I'd take this a step further and say it's important to talk about their flaws in nuanced and honest ways. It's something that is both extremely difficult and extremely important. To say "here are the great things they brought into the world" and to say "here are the things that were not so great" and to use both pieces of information when we construct ourselves and our society.

Someone who very much falls into this category is Ghandi. A person who was as complex as they were impactful. Ghandi has had an undeniably huge impact on the well being of a huge portion of the world. He was also disgusting and abusive to individuals around him. We, as individuals, need to make it clear that one of these is great and the other is unacceptable. We are capable of such nuance.

Hitting the “Join The Team” button up top takes you back to the main site, which seems reasonable since in most cases a technical blog is meant to be a recruitment funnel more than a general public-facing PR document, no?
that's wrong. Noether's theorem says that "energy is conserved" is equivalent to "the laws of physics are time invariant". If you assert that "energy is conserved" because "the laws are time invariant" that risks begging the question. At the very least you should be asking "ok, then, why are the laws of physics time invariant?"

We know that all of the laws of physics we observe at the local scale are time invariant, but that is not necessarily true for any law we haven't discovered yet. While on the local scale that feels so unlikely as for it to be basically considered "inviolable without extraordinary evidence", that is not necessarily the case in the community for laws at the cosmic scale.

I generally agree with you about not dismissing the value of accounting.

However this:

I disagree with.

A walking dead company is only walking dead until one of its initiatives pays off.

The accountants will only know this after the fact, whereas numerous other functions may know it to varying degrees of confidence before the fact.

>Absolutely none of these points are arguments against having the option to have an alternative browser rendering engine. Not sure why you think they are.

Not sure why you think they were intended to be.

Those weren't "arguments against having the option to have an alternative browser rendering engine".

Those were arguments about "Apple not having an alternative rendering engine" is not about sabotaging some imaginary web app revolution, just about Safari having its own timeline and priorities.

Regarding that, not how there's no such web-over-native-app trend in Android either, where Chrome IS available. Most still prefer native apps.

If you think, you could also think them as "arguments not against, but as to why it's no big deal to not have an alternative browser rendering engine".
