  • I don’t have in-depth knowledge of the differences and how big that is. So take the following with a grain of salt.

    My main point is that using containerization is a huge security improvement. Podman seems to be even more secure. Calling Docker massively insecure makes it seem like something we should avoid, which takes focus away from the enormous security benefit containerization gives. I believe Docker is fine, but I do use Podman myself, but that is only because Podman desktop is free, and Docker files seem to run fine with Podman.

    Edit: After reading a bit I am more convinced that the Podman way of handling it is superior, and that the improvement is big enough to recommend it over Docker in most cases.


  • There are another important reason than most of the issues pointer out here that docker solves.

    Security.

    By using containerization Docker effectively creates another important barrier which is incredibly hard to escape, which is the OS (container)

    If one server is running multiple Docker containers, a vulnerability in one system does not expose the others. This is a huge security improvement. Now the attacker needs to breach both the application and then break out of a container in order to directly access other parts of the host.

    Also if the Docker images are big then the dev needs to select another image. You can easily have around 100MB containers now. With the “distroless” containers it is maybe down to like 30 MB if I recall correctly. Far from 1GB.

    Reproducability is also huge efficiency booster. “Here run these this command and it will work perfecty on your machine” And it actually does.

    It also reliably allows the opportunity to have self-healing servers, which means businesses can actually not have people available 24/7.

    The use of containerization is maybe one of the greatest marvels in software dev in recent (10+) years.



  • On their page it says: "## Ascensio System SIA - home of the ONLYOFFICE

    ONLYOFFICE is a project developed by experienced IT experts from Ascensio System SIA, leading IT company with headquarters in Riga, Latvia. Originally ONLYOFFICE was designed for internal team collaboration.

    An attempt to introduce it to a wider audience proved to be successful: ONLYOFFICE received very positive feedback from the Internet community. As a result, its functionality was considerably revised and expanded that brought about a high and stable growth of users from different countries.

    Hmm…you seem to be at least partially right.

    “In 2009, a group of software developers from Ascensio System SIA (Latvian-based) and New Communication Technologies (Russian-based) launched a project called TeamLab, a platform for internal team collaboration.[32]https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/OnlyOffice



  • Well… It depends.

    Was it truly deliberate, as in “I want to poison this dog, so that it dies”? If yes, then there is hard to forgive, maybe not possible. The only way would be if they reported themself to the police and offered a sincere apology, and then I would not let them near my dog as long as it lives. But could maybe forgive in time if they did all that.

    Deliberate is also not black and white. Were they negligent? As in knew that dogs can’t really have onions, but did fed them food with just a little bit of onion in it, thinking it would be fine? Negligence can be forgiven, but only with a sincere apology.

    I would forgive them if it was not deliberate at all. Even with a pretty bad apology.

    If this person is important in your life, or are closely related, I would explain to them that the apology did not feel sincere, and that you consider it hard to forgive. Ask that they try again.

    Also, do forgive them for your own sake, no reason to be angry in the long term, but you don’t have to trust them. Edit: you don’t have to tell them that you forgive them.

    If it was a child that did this everything is very different. The answer assumed a person 18-20+

    That’s my take.
