Mirantis acquires Docker Enterprise and Docker raises $35M

I know. This was a social experiment.

Thanks for your comment, I appreciate that! Both tools you mentioned are great and kinda relate to this experiment too.

The existence of docker and how it was developed and absorved by people brought nice things too. The kernel had to workout some areas.

The tool itseft is ok. I use something like this:

|-- Dockerfile

|-- README.md

`-- rootfs

    |-- etc

    |   `-- sample

    |       `-- sample.conf

    `-- usr

        `-- bin

            `-- sample

5 directories, 4 files

But I'm not talking about that.

For me is just interesting, you know, the tool itself doesn't matter, one can do that with any tool.

This experiment was to measure how humans entering an existing field will react... just like language has been shaped.

It was a bit sad that nobody was curious enough to talk about ${FOO_PORT:-1234} and why we should deprecate (links) or about "defaults". It was a success, though.

Whats the problem with ${FOO_PORT:-1234}?

Sure, it doesnt exist in the language of Dockerfile but you can achieve the same effects in other trivial ways.
