It's a funny headline that leads into an article about the kitchen sink nature of ZFS, perhaps dragging in a few people who otherwise wouldn't be interested in reading it. Perhaps ideally we would have no linkbait, but this is not the world we live in, so I appreciate some clever linkbait to go along with the run of the mill linkbait.
- adwf 12y agoExactly. The whole article is tongue in cheek; I think the GP is taking it a little too seriously (or missed the joke - I don't judge in text formats)
- mantrax5 12y agoI get the joke, but I don't think we read about technology for the comedy of it. People who would've found ZFS interesting on its own merit won't read about it, and those who are interested in Git would.
- XorNot 12y agoThose interested in got should, because we have Docker borrowing git's terminology heavily but acting much more like ZFS snapshots and clones.
- mst 12y agoI read it to learn more about ZFS, and understood that the mention of git was more to point out there'd be stuff about snapshotting and sharing changes. I wasn't disappointed.
