Yeah, I'm not saying it's just a cheap shot; Rocket does a good job of addressing some real issues with Docker. I'm optimistic that the ecosystem as a whole will benefit a lot from this, no matter how much or how little marke

Docker and CoreOS are in a pre-monetization land grab for a single market. They've so far been approaching it from opposing corners, but CoreOS just made the first play at the opponent's territory, and it apparently rattled Docker

It's always funny watching peoples' reaction to meditation as a means to an end. People want to meditate for cognitive benefits, but meditation purportedly teaches that meditation should not be done for any particular benefit. I t

Well, it's both really; one side is a cultural or scientific icon, and the other is the Queen or a prime minister. I am pretty proud of our $5 though: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8542/8694157272_8990e8bcca_z.j...

No, they quite clearly did this: if password_requires_rotation() p1, p2 = split_in_half(password) fail unless p1 == p2 verify(p1, ciphertext) else verify(password, ciphertext)

It's probably not hard to fix; the codebase is tiny. I've been looking for an excuse to use it, but none has surfaced, since the only compiled language I use at work is Go.

That is terrifying . I just added this to my zshrc: git() { local toplevel=$(command git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null) if [[ "${toplevel}" == "${HOME}" ]] && [[ "$1&q

I just made ~/.git and ignore everything with .gitignore, whitelisting files I want to commit: https://github.com/burke/dotfiles/blob/master/.gitignore It works really well for me.

Wow, that's a lot easier than the OS-dependent Syscall6 crap with termios from the "real" solutions I've seen.

I've always thought it would be nice to have a utility like cat that I could pipe commands to, which would trick them into thinking all their streams were attached to a tty, so you could do "uses_colours | ttycat | less -R".

I think it depends what sort of things you use it for. I often use it to switch on or off ANSI colourization, which doesn't really violate the principle of least surprise. When used sparingly and thoughtfully, I've never personall

Or, execute "/bin/[ -t 1" (or "test -t 1", or "[[ -t 1 ]]", or ...). This is handy in shellscripts (obviously), but also in languages like Go, which lack a builtin way to test whether stdout is a TTY.

So death threats are okay as long as you don't follow through?

I'm not sure how complete this is, but there's really not much to implementing a graphdriver backend: https://github.com/gurjeet/docker/tree/00cb68183447a43fd1498...

You still wouldn't be able to trust them. Google's Spanner goes really far down this line of reasoning. Read the paper; it's great. Basically, highly-precise clocks in a machine-local context would substantially reduce drift,

A discussion board where every comment must be factual and newsworthy isn't a discussion board; it's a news feed.

The list doesn't seem to imply that global warming isn't happening; just that people are pretty quick to blame things on it.

Agreed. /.+@.+\..+/. Anything "smarter" is almost always overthinking it.

Hm, this is actually a really neat idea. I'm going to try this!

I use <space> for this. It's very gratifying, mashing the spacebar to repeat a macro.

We do a similar thing using SysV Message Queues. Other than being operationally weird due to their age, SysVMQs are actually a really great fit for this problem.

Neither jail nor Solaris Zones ran on Linux, or had branding.

Hey now, there were at least two words. Chapa'ai meant "stargate". I guess "tok'ra" and "jaffa" count too, but I can't even think of any others. Probably the least developed language of all time.

We have an init process that runs inside docker containers, and we took a bit of a different route, in listening on SIGCHLD and then doing non-blocking Wait4(0,...) until there are no more children to reap: https://gist.github.co

rebase isn't very hard to implement; you just have to check the reflog.

Same here. Oddly, it always connects immediately at work, but fails in this same way at home, where I have an Airport Extreme router. You'd think if one combination was going to fail, it would be the one with two vendors. EDIT: This is

https://code.google.com/p/gorest/ is another one worth considering if the overhead of routing with net/http feels too much.

I find it a bit offensive that this can be accurately viewed as a negotiation. This is like demanding the supermarket buy your grocery delivery business a larger van when the toilet paper manufacturer starts selling larger packs. It's
