What's the overhead of Docker when running on RPi? How many such small docker images could be run on RPi3? (RPi3 has 4 cores (arm8) and 1GB memory, like a 4 year old smartphone.)

Like 3 years ago I proposed a Nodejs implementation based on Gecko instead of V8. Two Mozilla devs mentioned they don't care and see no need. In the meantime even MS is trying with their Chakra.

Gift your loved ones an iPad or Android tablet, maybe also enable some parent control to limit their exposure. 90% of end users don't need a notebook, a tablet is the safer alternative.

Will the reliance on recent msvcredist (Visual c++ redistributable) be gone too with the move to Clang? Their 2015 (and later) tooling and runtime cannot be trusted anymore, they send home data like there is no tomorrow - as observed on Win

Probably, the made the Model 3 uglier on purpose, to differentiate from the luxury Model S. Buy yeah I agree there is no motor in front, so they had all freedom to come up with some nice design... the front portion could look a lot better,
