Reporters & editors must be careful when allowing sources to be quoted anonymously, but "requested anonymity to avoid the embarrassment of being known as the company foiled by an umbrella" absolutely clears that bar buzzfeednews.com/article/kat…

After firing hundreds of staff, the WeWork CEO held a somber all-hands meeting explaining why it was a necessary move, but then trays of tequila were handed out and DMC from Run-DMC burst into the room and performed "It's Tricky" wsj.com/articles/this-is-not…

My grandmother passed away. Her funerals were today, but here I'd like to talk about the most important thing I couldn't spend too much time on in her eulogy: her love for Dungeons & Dragons. #DnD

Container engines, web servers, databases ... All that stuff is just "wrapping some system calls". And often, it's easy to write your own proof-of-concept, and it's great to do it for learning purposes. Writing one that can safely go to production is a whole different story!
Really tired of people trashing container tech like “it’s just wrapping some system calls I can do that myself”. Yes, you could do it yourself…. and you *will* mess it up because it’s actually hard to do correctly.

Fun facts: this is the Greenland shark. They have a lifespan of around 400 years. Most are blind due to a parasite attracting itself to its eyes. Their meat is poisonous and they do not attack humans. Let’s protect and save our oceans for these cool beasts.
