a brief history:

3 guys create dotCloud during Y Combinator Summer batch 2010
rename to "Docker" and debut at PyCon 2013, released as open source
2014: Windows Server, IBM Cloud, and AWS announce collaborations, raise $15M Series B from Greylock Partners, IVP, Benchmark, Trinity
Federal agencies and In-Q-Tel (CIA) invest and/or maintain contracts since 2016
in 2019, secured $35 million in new financing to restructure
4 months ago, Docker Raises $23MM series B
and finally, today: after granting it admin rights upon initial installation, Docker started asking for $5/mo from me to not install software every day

Centralised messaging systems seem incredibly unsustainable, if Telegram's operational costs are anything to go by.
They've borrowed a billion+ from investors (through bond sales,) and will need "at least a few hundred million dollars per year to keep going," according to the founder.

A line is an expression, not an accuracy test! #arttips

Attachments:

• If you're keeping the lines sketchy, overlapping long lines tend to be more expressive than many tiny lines linked together. The former prioritizes the flow that the line is trying to convey, rather than the line itself. (An example of a potted plant below; tiny scratchy lines are technically close to the shape but feel janky, while long flowing lines preserve the feel of the plant even if they're not 100% accurate.)

EU withheld a study that shows piracy doesn't hurt sales

https://www.engadget.com/2017-09-22-eu-suppressed-study-piracy-no-sales-impact.html

In 2013, the European Commission ordered a €360,000 ($430,000) study on how piracy affects sales of music, books, movies and games in the EU. However, it never ended up showing it to the public except for one cherry-picked section. That's possibly because the study concluded that there was no evidence that piracy affects copyrighted sales, and in the case of video games, might actually help them.

Good bike news: there's a parking "house" for bikes.
Bad bike news: it's not so big and it's full.
Good bike news: there's a bike storage/parking room inside the storage building.
Bad bike news: it's behind two locked doors so getting the bike is more work.

Tonight I feel like I have looked at too many things and now I can't look at more things, such as video games. I used up all my vision for the day.

This cat discourse is extremely weird to me.

How many of the people saying all cars should be kept indoors all the time because it’s “better” for them felt just as happy and content with life during the COVID lockdown?
