Rejection here. Was prepared for this, but still, it stings. > We're trying to get better at this, but the hard limit on the number of interviews means it's practically certain that groups we rejected will go on to create succe

The thing is, the applicants would have read them too. I don't think most applicants would have the obvious red flags. Many that don't get in would be the corner case, ie, pushed down by those with a slight edge.

They haven't sent out the mail yet. You will get a mail (be sure to have your mail id in the profile with which you applied) even if you are rejected

Here's what I do 1. Develop locally, use Github/Bitbucket for version control 2. ssh into my vps and use git pull 3. Configure things like api secrets (ssh + vim) If there is a bug that needs to be fixed, go back to local, fix, pu

I agree with this. I wanted to add OT to one of my projects and checked it out. Couldn't get the head or tail of the code. So opted for ShareJS instead.

Just keep your eyes and ears open. The set of all possible startup ideas is an infinite one, so no matter what your age/position/domain is, you can, at any point in your life find one or more ideas that can be turned into a startu

I used your product to write my resume, and could finish it without having to learn latex top-to-bottom. Really an amazing product guys. Wish you all the best and hope you achieve great success!

I completely associate with what you said about using Docker as an educational tool. I have my projects littered around, and half of them might not even run anymore. Might be good to build a tar and archive them somewhere.

not if there is a non-cacheable command like "apt-get update". And if the subsequent command is something like "apt-get nodejs", then potentially two builds can have two different versions

Docker has kinks in its armour as well. There are some pretty irritating issues like #643 and #1171. Anyway, the naming wasn't done with that intention. I agree that the context just isn't the same.

That looks really bad. I use Linux as well, but hadn't checked the rendering in Firefox. Have to change it. Pity, it looked good in Chrome

Dockerfiles are just "run anywhere", not "run any time". Maybe I should have made it clear. The creator still needs to maintain his Dockerfile. Maybe http://blog.docker.io/2013/11/introducing-tr

Oh! It seems I misunderstood your comment. My apologies. Yes, it makes sense to use one container for all the dependencies pertaining to an application. However, if you are running multiple applications on the same server, you can sandbox t

I have never used Puppet/Chef,so can't speak for them, but part of the reason why sandboxing in Docker isn't overkill is that it uses a layered file system that shares as much as can be shared; so, although the containers are

Think about it as a very lightweight VM. You can do everything you can in a VM (which, in turn, can do everything you can in your regular system). Only thing is, it is a wrapper over lxc (Linux Containers) which means that you can only run
