| + | * I've never trusted Docker containers. Everyone seems to love docker | ||
| + | * though. They're always all like "Awe, no. Docker's a cool guy. He'll help | ||
| + | * you move...yada yada yada". I don't buy it. Can't put my finger on it, | ||
| + | * but Docker's always seemed shifty to me. But does anyone ever listen | ||
| + | * to me? Nooooo! Meanwhile everyone just let's Docker hang out on their | ||
| + | * servers, borrow their data and what not. Mark my words, you just let | ||
| + | * Docker take advantage of you like that, you are just asking for trouble. | ||
| + | * | ||
| + | * Alright. All I am asking is that you be careful. Take a few precautions | ||
| + | * when you are dealing with Docker. Maybe I'm just being my paranoid | ||
| + | * self but it can't hurt, right? That's where the next STL2600 + DC314 | ||
| + | * meeting comes in. Turn's out Docker is an old frat brother drinking buddy | ||
| + | * or something of Bob's. Whatever he is, Bob's got a few tips on how to | ||
| + | * handle Docker and not let it take advantage of you. So just hear him out, | ||
| + | * and learn how to keep your containers safe and secure. | ||
