Unless you're optimizing for stagnation, this really is a terrible approach to reaping the benefits of innovation. If your prereq to trying something better is that it needs to mirror something that's "decent already," you'll spend most of your life stuck on the same plateau.

- lopatin 6y agoYeah, you're right. I should make the time to learn more stuff and never make excuses for why I don't. On the other hand, I don't think you fully understand where I'm coming from. "Optimizing for stagnation", "stuck on the same plateau". Idk, I just want to run a container. I'm totally fine being on the same Docker plateau if something like Podman makes me re-learn what I already know how to do. Unlike Git, which, from the start, was different and BETTER than SVN, can you really make the case that Podman would be BETTER if it didn't try to follow Docker conventions? If not, what are we talking about here?
- ashtonkem 6y agoHistory is full of technologies that are superior to existing options on one metric or another and yet failed to take over due to switching costs. Attacking someone as “optimizing for stagnation” is a really bizarre way to view their reaction to a product offering a smooth on boarding process.
