Whenever I see "IYKYK" I get very annoyed because you COULD just explain it instead.

Folks, the docker runtime is open source, and not even the only one of its kind. They won't charge for that. If they tried to make it closed source, everyone would just laugh and switch to one of several completely free alternatives. They charge for hosting images, build time on their build servers, and various "premium" developer tools you don't need. In fact, you need none of this, you can do all of it yourself on whatever hardware you deem to be good enough. There are also many other hosted alternatives out there.

Docker thinks they have a monopoly, for some reason. If you use the technology, you are probably already aware that they don't.

Sirius is an inspired choice

Not exactly the same. First of all, a new company hasn't formed yet and if it does it won't retain as many of the original staff because it doesn't have the same momentum as one formed through a legal separation of the companies while everyone is still employed.

It also can't retain the rights to Stray which would have provided some funding. And it doesn't retain the rights to whatever projects they had in development, so they won't have anything to work on for a while.

That legal spinning off was actually pretty important.

To be fair, if you do go over to Snoop's he WILL set you straight.

Wowwwwwww when you give a person the chance to shut the fuck up and not remind people they exist and then they do this

I wish this headline was only 4 words long

I'm enjoying the fact that, weeks ago, he tried to say she had scheduled some and her campaign's response was "we'll see how the first one goes". Which now can be read as "Maybe baby won't wanna play any more after we kick him in the nuts."

there’s a way to tie it back to circles

Not necessarily circles, but conic sections. When you take a series of a fixed exponent over a variable x, and graph it, that graph is a parabola.

A parabola is a slice through a cone. Tada, pi appears.

I don't want the context, but that last tweet is hilarious. I'm imagining this is how we found out 10 million Alfs just landed on earth.

Mostly it's just CYA for google since cycling is more dangerous than driving (due to the people driving), so there's more surface area for them to get sued.

But yeah

• turns and crossings that look safe on a map don't have very much data on whether they're actually safe, because google has a thousand times as much information about drivers than cyclists.
• google sometimes suggests routes that can't be traversed, legally or at all, by a bike. Same reason.
• sometimes google suggests avoiding something a bike doesn't actually have to worry about. This is actually the category of error I see the most: google sends you around something when you could simply walk your bike through it, or ride through it, because you're not a car.
