Kind of odd that "What is a container?" comes near the bottom of the page. But 100 bonus points for never mentioning Docker.

Re: Such container
#22This is a subject I really want to know about. But the presentation of this this page is (no better word for it) obnoxious. I wonder why the author did it. Annoyingly the 'reader' feature of Safari doesn't work on this page.
Comic Sans is an awesome font. People act like it is an attack on their eyes, but harder to read fonts make information easier to retain: http://www.futurity.org/hard-to-read-fonts-easier-to-retain/ A quote from that: "Those who read about the aliens in an easy-to-read font (16-point Arial pure black) answered correctly 72.8 percent of the time, compared to 86.5 percent of those who reviewed the material in hard-to-r…
Not just comic sans. It's that dog, the image, the meme too. Maybe it's just me, but it seems like the author said "what can I do that will irritate people the most".
I'm partially complaining because it irritated me (out of selfishness), but mostly saying "why would you do that?" (out of curiosity).

#23I hate to admit that I mindlessly upvote doge-related submissions and comments. Very shaem
I would have almost upvoted this submission, but as it is often the case, the title on HN is complete meaningless garbage.
A much better title would be "Such container - an attempt to document the ins and outs of containers on Linux.". This way I would instantly know what the article is about... I wish there would be some way to add a tldr to the title.
This is really the one thing I hate about HN nowadays. Usually at least a third of the submissiond have completely meaningless titled. For example currently there are "Jitterdämmerung" and "A letter from Transnistria" on the front page. How am I supposed to know what those are about without clicking on them?
(Sorry for the rant...)

I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I really can't see past Comic Sans to read the actual content.
My advice: simply remove Comic Sans from your computer.
It's an arms race just as vicious as the adblocker situation. If people block it, eventually it'll show up as as webfont...

Comic sans is one thing, an extremely light cursive script is another. It's not hard to read, it's impossible.

Some websites seem to use Comic Sans in particular so that folks just looking for form would go away: http://www.libressl.org/ (OpenBSD's OpenSSL fork) ;) edit oh no, it seems LibreSSL changed the font! :( But I quite remember it being different (or perhaps it was another website related to the OpenBSD foundation)
Interesting. At least their logo is still Comic Sans :)

>why would you do that?
Why not?
Just because the personality of the author disagrees with your sensibilities you have to appose them to the point other people have to read a comment concerning your self irritation to the authors style of presentation.
If you feel content shouldn't be on this website you can downvote it.

As I'm an old man, and have no idea what the kids are up to, I thank the internet that knowyourmeme.com exists.
As I'm a young man who seldom browses 4chan, I'm thankful I hang around communities of people who do, to fill me on all the dank memes.
It's more of a subculture than a generational zeitgeist. By the time you see it among your Facebook friends, much less HN, it's far removed.

Careful with the flags. By all means flag off-topic stuff but don't flag on-topic stuff of the site because you don't like it.
