(co-author of the article and Docker engineer here) I think WireGuard is a good foundation to build this kind of feature. Perhaps try the Tailscale extension for Docker Desktop whi…

I believe even with the visa it’s still up to the immigration agent. I came close to trouble once when asked for my H1B visa petition document (not the visa in the passport). I had…

I feel exactly the same way. College had just the right amount of private space, lots of shared spaces for social occasions / group working and a maintenance department to look aft…

Do you mean TSG? From https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/6.0#TCG > TCG > Added support for Apple Silicon hosts (macOS)

(I work for Docker on the M1 support) I'm glad it's working for you! There's a bug in the recent Docker Desktop on Apple Silicon RC build which affects some users of vagrant at the…

Thank you for this -- I've been bothered by my Windows PC not sleeping properly for the best part of a year. `powercfg lastwake` indicated the Ethernet adapter and then disabling t…

Don't worry, we (at Docker) have been working on Apple Silicon support for a while. The command-line tools work under Rosetta 2 but the local VM inside Desktop will take a little b…

Thousands (30) of people are in the trial, half were assigned randomly to the control group. So far 95 people in the trial have caught COVID and, when they unblinded the data, they…

I do OCaml programming on Windows and I found that it was a bit confusing at first with too many different ports and install options. However once I settled on https://github.com/f…

Yes -- opam and dune are complimentary. I normally use dune (formerly known as "jbuilder") as the build system within my packages, which I then publish and install via opam. Dune d…

Are you trying to avoid linking against Cygwin at runtime or trying to avoid Cygwin in the build environment too? In my case I use Cygwin in the build environment (see https://gith…

I think `opam` failed to find `jbuilder` on the `$PATH`, even though (presumably) `opam` has built it and installed it in it's own `bin/` directory. Try running `eval $(opam config…

There's a very good OCaml binding: https://github.com/fdopen/uwt . It works really well in the networking component of the Docker for Mac and Windows desktop apps (see https://gith…

The 1.5% that's in the hyperkit repo is the shim to the Mirage block layer. The qcow2 implementation that's normally linked in is from https://github.com/mirage/ocaml-qcow .

I'm also an OCaml old timer and I think I can relate too. I believe the recent tooling changes are going in the right direction and will eventually fix several of these problems, f…

I don't know the answer to the mix old/new compilers question but it looks like it's only the directory structure of the compiled artefacts that's important rather than the directo…

(I work on Docker for Mac.) Apologies for the inconvenience this has caused. There was a race condition in a previous release which could allow multiple hypervisor instances to ope…

In the past I worked for a UK company from the UK which was owned by a US parent, where employees in the UK were granted options in the US company under the HMRC Enterprise Managem…

I'm looking forward to trying APFS, particularly support for sparse files. But you're right, it'll take while before we can rely on it.

We'll probably use AHCI since hyperkit https://github.com/docker/hyperkit (the Mac hypervisor based on xhyve based on bhyve) lacks a virtio-scsi implementation at the moment. When …

(I'm a Docker employee working on this very issue. I guess my plan to take a break by reading HN failed!) You're completely right -- it's a problem caused by lack of TRIM in the st…

(I work at Docker) If you haven't already and can spare the time, could you file a pair of issues: perhaps one for the shared volume problem and another for the networking on https…

The DNS resolving code in Docker for Mac is in the VPNkit project which is open-source: https://github.com/docker/vpnkit . A DNS timeout is a fairly general symptom and it's hard t…

If you have the time, could you make a report on the issue tracker https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues and include the contents of /etc/resolv.conf and "scutil --dns" when you…

A minor addition: to use 'localhost' in beta 8 you may need to also run the internal debug command: pinata set native/port-forwarding true In previous betas this setting was implie…
