Missing from the article is any details on ventilation. You need fresh air to survive, which means non-water tight holes will be somewhere on that thing. Normally on a boat, they would be on the part that's above water. On a spinning b

I'm a fan of the Go proverb "a little copying is better than a little dependency"[1] and also the "rule of three"[2] when designing a shared dependency. I think the JS developers could take a lesson from the Go prov

A detail not included here, but important for people interested in the sea level, is the effects of the wind. Lots of places along the east coast of the US experience mild tides, but a steady wind in the right direction will push sea levels

Do you want to spend your time creating a project the world finds useful, or do you want to make a political statement that gets ignored? Because any attempt to restrict the license turns into the latter. If the project is even slightly use

I'd simplify this post down to this: companies optimize the trade-off between time, cost, and quality by sacrificing quality. It's not that the goal is to write low quality code, it's that big businesses understand the sales

A boycott is a form of protest. There's more than just a protest happening here. Foreigners are legitimately afraid to travel to the US after seeing stories of others being detained and treated inhumanely.

While the data is interesting, this graphic is a terrible choice. There's no value to being a pie chart where every slice is the same width. And the colors only seem to be a second indicator of the same percentage. This could have been

This whole article could have been much better written as: learn to build images with a Dockerfile/ Containerfile or similar tooling, and store logs in a volume rather than the image filesystem. Everyone that builds a process around `d

This can be summed up as a time and money problem. Time has disappeared as people attempt to do everything themselves (work, cooking, cleaning, managing finances, etc) that may have been shared or outsourced in the past. But time has also d

VM's tend to lose the overlay layered filesystem which can dramatically reduce disk usage. Having the filesystem reset to a clean state for every new container is a huge feature of containers. And VM's tend to need predefined dedi
