    There really isn't such a restriction. I sometimes need containers with several services, and that's perfectly fine if it makes the setup simpler. Services can be dynamically enabl…

    This 'an average 4 year old can use an iPhone better...' makes me cringe every time I hear it, especially when it comes from proud parents who think their offspring is a genius. Th…

    As many others have mentioned, the secret sauce is probably quite simply this: No ads, no trackers, no js libraries. I use Firefox with the 'disconnect' plugin. On HN, disconnect s…

    thanks for this. I always have to hold myself back when one of the worst language features is being seen as something positive. Now I feel I don't have to rant.

    This reminded me of an article I've read a long time ago which had a really strong impact on me. I've just found it by googling a couple of words that were still in my head after a…

    I've followed a policy of using djb's software whenever possible over the years. Unfortunately qmail shows its age and may no longer be a good choice these days, but then again, wh…

    I'm not sure what you mean by the last sentence. That wasn't entertainment. That was an ultra handy feature which I miss to this day. You could have several fullscreen applications…

    There are two ways: 1. You run the db and its files inside a container and regularly export a DB dump like so (example for postgres): docker run --volumes-from db -v $(pwd):/backup…

    I'm not sure why I need to tell you all this. :) I was replying to "What are some problems that get solved better when using Docker?".

    We have many images, and we build them in a CI setup using jenkins. I used to run jenkins inside docker and build images within that docker, but this turned out to be a problem. (M…

    One thing I'd like to point out are OS upgrades, security patches or generally package updates. With docker I just rebuild a new image using the latest ubuntu image (they are updat…

    While I can't speak for someone else, I find myself in the same place: I have 16GB in my mid 2010 MacBook and it's not enough when you develop with Xcode (incrementally eats memory…

    What is the actual advantage of AppCode these days? (Just purely from a user experience point of view.) When I tried it a hile back it kept switching back to XCode for UI Changes, …

    Sorry, but that's just mindboggingly stupid. They could have done something (slightly) more interesting, e.g. xyz.shouldIlearnIt.com and replace the xyz in the answers by whatever …

    I appreciate your engagement in this discussion, but you can't be serious now: Of course the iPhone was a game changer, but that doesn't reset everything to 0. Nokia's brand recogn…
