I think the OP is probably referring to the fact that running Docker on Windows and macOS is accomplished by running a Linux VM which the Docker containers run in. Not that Docker containers are VMs.

The cynical reply to this is also "Will I be alive to care?". A more realistic reply might be "will any humans even be alive to inherit my game library?" or "will anyone even be able to run any of my games on the ha

I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. Virtual building is great because it lets people build things without having to be limited by the space they have available or the materials they have to build with (in Minecraft (creative

Is it absurd to not want to get pulled over? I'm not arguing against raising the speed limit to the natural speed. I'm against blaming (and tailgating and generally harassing) drivers who are following the speed limit because they

I am all for raising the speed limit if the speed limit is lower than what is safe, but I have an issue with the way the article blames drivers who drive at the speed limit for the delta in speeds. If we all need to agree on a speed to driv

That's interesting. I thought that everyone was mocking Iron Man for wearing it (people my age wore Axe when we were in middle school). It hadn't occurred to me that this was still probably a net positive for Axe.

Wow--this exists? I had heard of Tweetdeck, but I assumed that it was a third-party client which provided a better experience and was therefore at odds with Twitter's interests. You're telling me that, not only is Twitter okay wit

Yep, that's what I use as well. It works, but I don't really love that I have to create an IAM role and a Lambda function just to create an encrypted secret.

ECS/Fargate and Kubernetes are different, for sure, but it seems like the author is conflating the one-time setup costs of Fargate with the continual maintenance costs of running Kubernetes on VMs which you maintain yourself, which doe

A "task" in ECS means a container. In Fargate, in order to be ready to receive requests 24/7, you have to pay to have a container running 24/7. In that sense, it feels a lot closer to EC2 than it does to Lambda.

by robrtsql 8y ago
Yes and no--Fargate is a Docker container which runs on an ECS cluster that you don't have to manage, sure, but it doesn't scale down to zero. As far as I know, there's no support for running an HTTP endpoint and then having
