  • I’ve worked at 5 different companies in the last 5 years since finishing University and it hasn’t been an issue with recruiters. I’ve been able to almost triple the salary I got in my first job. I’m hoping to stay a while at my current place, but you never know how things turn out. When you feel like the job is unhealthy for you or that you have better prospects elsewhere, there’s no reason to stay.

    Employers are not loyal towards employees and will fire them without blinking an eye the moment they need to prop up their stock value. I don’t see why employees should feel any different towards employers. It’s business.


  • I used to use LXC maybe 5 years ago but I’ve since replaced everything with docker/compose. The main difference between LXC and Docker is that LXC is meant to be more like a Virtual Machine than a container. LXC containers run their own instance of systemd and can run multiple processes easily. Docker is meant to run a single process although people sometimes do hacks with supervisord or s6 overlay to run multiple processes.

    At the time LXC didn’t really have a concept of images like Docker, it was just base images like Ubuntu 18.04 or Debian 9 and you’d shell in the container and install your stuff.

    LXD is a tool built on top of LXC, confusingly enough the LXD client is called lxc… It’s higher level and might have the ability to use images, not sure, I never felt the need to learn it.
