If you are looking to pad your resume, after learning Docker, spend a tiny bit more time to learn the basics of Kubernetes (just the basics). Maybe install Minikube. Then you can add that to your resume as well.

This may be what you are trying to say but Docker makes reproducibility between environments far easier.

If it works in Docker on your machine, it will likely work in Docker equally well elsewhere. Or perhaps more important for you, if it worked for the dev, it will probably work for you too. Except for the network, the app always runs in the same environment (no matter where you deploy it).

Docker is kind of like shipping the software already installed on a laptop (just without the hardware). By that I mean that it is the software, already installed and configured, including all the libraries and utilities that it depends on.

Indeed. I joke that I can type 100 words per minute but that 32 of them are backspace.

I bought a 2013 MacBook Air for $60 a year ago to take with me on a backpacking trip.

It is running the very latest release of EndeavourOS and runs it well. It can do video calls. Honestly, there is little it cannot do.

You can use it to learn to program C, C++, Rust, Python, Go, Java, C#, and F#. It runs Distrobox and Docker so you can learn about containers. I guess after using QEMU/KVM to learn about VMs. You can use it to run K3S. You can run Postman, RestAssured, and Selenium to learn about Web APIs and testing. It runs WASM. You can orchestrate AWS or Azure from it as it runs both Terraform and OpenTofu great. It can run a host of cybersecurity tools including BurpSuite. You can run both SQL and Document databases. You can use it to package your own software and contribute to Linux distro development. You can emulate older machines and even run digital design tools and PCB layout. Obviously it runs all the major modern web browsers and a couple different Office suites. It can even do basic video editing and run smaller LLMs. It can run Steam if you are happy with older games. I know it can do all these things because I have.

Without going on and on, I think you could use it to rotate a PDF.

It comes with keyboard, trackpad, screen, and networking built in. It takes up hardly any space. And it is considerably less expensive than most phones and tablets. Of course, there are many less expensive computers that would also do the trick if you cannot afford $60 and just want to learn.

I don’t think you can argue that basic computer skills are elitist. We are not talking F1 racing here.

Seems pretty clear that we are heading into an alliance between the Liberals and the Bloc. They align pretty well on issues outside of Quebec.

If the Liberals allow their Quebec ridings to support Quebec issues that the Bloc cares about, the Bloc will probably continue to support the Liberals more generally.

Unless the Bloc joins a non-confidence against the Liberals, the Liberals can effectively govern as if they had a majority.

And it will take 3 parties to gang up on the libs to force non-confidence. That means BOTH the NDP and the Bloc joining with the Conservatives. How likely does that seem? Even the Conservatives and Bloc together do not have the votes. The NDP sure doesn’t.

As of now, the Liberals only need 3 votes from outside the party on any given issue. On most issues, they should have little trouble overcoming the Conservative opposition.

The NDP cannot force anything. They are not even an official party.

Even if the NDP and Conservatives Team up, they cannot force non-confidence without support from the Bloc.

The liberals and the Bloc are the two parties with power right now. What the liberals have to do is act like the liberals in Quebec are pseudo Bloc MPs. That will keep the Bloc on their side and effectively allow them to act like they have a majority otherwise.

Obviously not re-elected. However, he was the Prime Minister before and still is. That is clearly what they are trying to say.

Pollivre won his riding 7 times in a row. Then Trump endorsed him.

They are talking about the economy, not Transit.

It has certainly done so to me
