There’s this crow outside that insists on plucking coconuts. A while back I was in a coconut tree (don’t ask), and there it was — a crow setting up its nest. I assisted by creating more space and since then it’s been obsessed with plucking coconuts. It’s dropping young and old ones faster than I’m willing to deal with them. 4 in the last two hours..

I might not remember correctly but lxc came out around 2008. Docker in 2013. The lxc commands had the trend of dashes in their name — lxc-attach, lxc-snapshot, lxc-copy and so forth. It had lots of boilerplate and a steep learning curve.

Then lxd arrived (in 2015?) to make everything user friendly. lxd is preferred. I still mostly use lxc out of habit.

My favorite way to know if a product/service works as advertised is to… use it. The devil is (usually) in the details, and the proof is in the eating. People naturally identify with the software/services they use, so getting an accurate picture (as an outsider) is tricky nowadays. A TOS can also give insight into a company’s product/service.

Every so often I’m reminded of how tricky Wikipedia is — especially for current events. It’s not magically unbiased. Inventing authoritative sources of truth with well timed edits for real world persuasive power is the oldest working trick in the book.
