It's really bugging me people are using the word "fork". This is not a fork, it's a competing container format, there isn't any docker code in Rocket AFAIK. Even @shykes called it a fork in a comment, it's no

seriously? Out of all crowds I would think anyone here would immediately get the terribleness of IE and how it had a huge impact on keeping the internet back. And IE's (diminishing) dominance has everything to owe to the monopoly Mic

Exactly. The post is full of contradictions and the "Narcissism" he rails against is reeking throughout it. And that word narcissism has become such an overused, cliche word for everything that ails society. It's used for a

Not to discount intentions, but I cringed when I read "Is this a business opportunity?" I feel it's a bit uncouth to say something like that in regards to taking money from homeless people. Maybe an opportunity for a non-pr

You were close, "Obamacare for the internet". Edit: Which in retrospect is more likely to outrage the Republican base.

Great attitude. Linus has had plenty of heated moments on the mailing lists, but 1) he's often right and 2) his venom is usually reserved for experienced developers that really should know better. Glad to him being so open and accept

Please explain this reasoning? Do you have any direct evidence this would be the case, in a general sense and not just personally? Income taxes in the US were the highest they've ever been in the 50s, 60s, and 70s and those were some

I've never heard this apologetic argument for mass extinction, it's somewhat disheartening. Do you think domesticated animals and scavengers are going to make up for the lost in biodiversity and ecological damage? Basically what

Your response is way ruder then the OP's, way to escalate the situation ... I don't see how it's hard to understand how using a syntax that was designed for rendering UI components for routing might be a bad idea. It's

I don't quite get what you mean. The author's example is a GET request on some web service, are you arguing we should always be using queues instead of a request/response models when talking to external services?

I really love Arch, even though I don't use it on a daily basis anymore the community wiki is the best resource I've found for guides on how to do a large number of tasks with the kernel that can work in most other distros.

I think with programs that are trying to encourage kids to get into any profession you're going to highlight the benefits. There can be some good perks to being a developer, whether its good salaries or flexible work environments. I

It infuriates me when citizens are so conceited that having the money to afford a higher education is equivalent to the merit of pursuing one. A government footing the bill for higher education isn't and wouldn't be the same as s
