This is the best argument I've heard so far for not blocking ads. Thank you for putting it so succinctly.

Completely agree. Compare to BitTorrent Sync, which is proprietary but works perfectly out of the box. [1]
[1] Okay, this is true for BitTorrent Sync versions < 1.4 -- more recent versions have been less reliable, particularly with regards to cross-platform syncing.

From what I've seen, it's more like "Hey, we're hiring an xyz! Know anybody who'd be interested?" with a link to a web page or email address.

Michael Ruhlman's _Ratio_ espouses a similar philosophy: that recipes can be looked at as patterns which you can build on.
It's a great idea, especially because it encourages experimentation.

Re:Building Good Docker Images

I hadn't even thought of pinning packages before I read the article; I'm kind of a sucker for apt-get update. I've been thinking a lot about Docker lately, and something in the back of my mind was like, "but what if you don't want the latest version of everything?"

Re:Building Good Docker Images

"Pin package versions" -- yes. One of the things that has been bugging me about Docker is that if you begin every Dockerfile with an `apt-get -y update`, you never know what you're going to end up with.
On the other hand, pinning every package that you install would end up being pretty verbose.
