  • Each VM can be sized appropriately for the demands of the container. With docker desktop, you can’t have a container use all of your system cores without making the VM have access to all of your cores all the time always. One of the biggest benefits (imo) of running containers on a Linux workstation is that if you don’t define a CPI limit, a container can use all the compute/memory on your system. You just can’t do that with Docker desktop. This also affects multi threaded container builds when you’re using buildkit.

    Being able to spin up a vm to build a container with all cores accessible to it, and then run the actual container with a smaller number of cores would make container builds so much faster.

    EDIT: I’ve looked, and it appears that podman desktop also does 1 big VM, rather than having 1 VM per container.






  • In particular, the companies purchase financial information from a data broker before offering a nurse a shift; if the nurse is carrying a lot of credit-card debt, especially if some of that is delinquent, the amount offered is reduced. “Because, the more desperate you are, the less you’ll accept to come into work and do that grunt work of caring for the sick, the elderly, and the dying.” That is horrific on many levels, he said, but “it is emblematic of ‘enshittification’”, which is one of the reasons he highlighted it.

    What the ACTUAL FUCK‽ This is the type of shit Neal Stephenson would put in a fucking cyberpunk dystopia novel. I am filled with so much fucking rage. My sister is a nurse and goes through so much fucking bullshit at her job already. Nurses really do not need more shit thrown at them.
