rusher81572on Subsidies to Amazon Are Uneconomical, Un-American, and Unconstitutional

The Government should not pick winners and losers. It is unfair for one company to get these great incentives. Also, the taxpayer ends up subsidizing all their monetary benefits for choosing the city. I am glad that both sides agree that this is wrong.

rusher81572on House Republicans propose to scrap $7,500 electric vehicle credit

I love electric cars but I do not think it is fair for my money to be taken to subsidize a car for someone else. I had no say in the matter. The same goes with solar subsidies. If you want an electric car or solar, you should pay for it, not the taxpayer.

rusher81572on Using PiCluster to Orchestrate Scality S3 in Docker

Thanks, I updated it =)

rusher81572on PiCluster: Simple Container Orchestration

Right now, the server simply sends Docker engine commands to the agent nodes. If you know the equivilant commands for "docker build" and "Docker run", I should be able to add it

rusher81572on PiCluster: Simple Container Orchestration

I can easily add another runtime. What were you thinking?

rusher81572on PiCluster: Simple Container Orchestration

Good idea. However, PiCluster will work perfectly fine on regular x86 hardware.

rusher81572on What I found wrong in Docker 1.12

Yes, I work for Apcera and linux-toys.com is my personal blog where I talk about open source technologies (mainly Docker lately) and software that I develop. Like the article states, I am a Docker fanboy and want them to be great again. The blog website is actually running on a four node Raspberry pi cluster that I referenced in the blog as a link. The reason I joined Apcera is because they are also developing cool container technology. Until recently, Apcera was only available to enterprises and didn’t have a solution for “homeduction” users like me to host and run applications like my blog and a few other services. With the community edition of the software, I can gather a few spare x86 boxes and make the switch. I will still be running the same Docker images but using Apcera’s orchestration software instead of swarm.

rusher81572on What I found wrong in Docker 1.12

Some bugs are ok and expected like you said but major functionality issues that make the new feature useless should be addressed prior to a release and huge marketing efforts.

rusher81572on What I found wrong in Docker 1.12

Yeah, Docker has a lot of catching up to do. They bragged a lot lately about how Swarm is faster than K8s but you really can not compare the two when you look at features and stability of k8s.

rusher81572on What I found wrong in Docker 1.12

I am looking more and more about using the Apcera Platform. They have everything I need in a container management platform for free: https://www.apcera.com/community-edition

rusher81572on What I found wrong in Docker 1.12

It is not about cost. It is about marketing and generating all the hype over something that clearly does not function properly. They act like they are laying golden eggs when in fact they are broken eggs.

rusher81572on What I found wrong in Docker 1.12

I feel the pain for I was in the same boat.

rusher81572on Goodbye Docker on CentOS, Hello Ubuntu

The base-image is a completely different matter. There is no reason to switch from CentOS/Fedora to Ubuntu just because you changed the host OS

>> Yes, there is. There is a known issue using AUFS(Which Ubuntu uses for Docker) with CentOS/Fedora images:

https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/6980

To make it easier, I just changed the base image from CentOS/Fedora to Ubuntu so I do not have to worry about it.

rusher81572on Goodbye Docker on CentOS, Hello Ubuntu

Yup!

rusher81572on Goodbye Docker on CentOS, Hello Ubuntu

That was my intention.

rusher81572on Goodbye Docker on CentOS, Hello Ubuntu

Good comment. Did you try on CentOS or Ubuntu?

rusher81572on Goodbye Docker on CentOS, Hello Ubuntu

I should write one that compliments that post. Good idea =)

rusher81572on Amazing “Is It Better to Rent or Buy?” Calculator

This does not really work in the bay area. Rent is too damn high here. This probably works better in the Central Valley or Fly over states

It's Fremont, not Freemont =)

rusher81572on T-Mobile iPhone goes from myth to reality: $580, but no contract

But all this will end up being the same thing right? I paid $199 for the iphone with Verizon. T-mobile will charge $99. I looked at the plans and it is better to go with verizon because they have a better tethering plan and better coverage and service. T-mobile's unlimited plan allows 250MB ~ 500MB or tethering only.
