Strapping something on your face may get old, but today it is better than the helmet you had to wear prior and the fixed device prior to that, the current trend is smaller faster lighter. How long before the VR solution is only slightly more uncomfortable than a pair of glasses?

Comment Re:What is docker? Docker is... (Score 2) 88

You can almost think of it as a new compiler system that outputs a self contained application that needs to know almost nothing about the underlying system. Similar to a virtual machine appliance, but designed to be the way it is and not an addition to platform.

You can compile software and create a container that includes everything needed to run that app as part of your continuous delivery environment then deploy the docker artifact to integration testing, qa testing and then to production as the exact same object.

Government is always good when choice is bad.

Corporations are always good when choice is good.

Some may try to argue that choice is always good, but it isn't. Five competing roads with 20 different owners that I have to use to get to work would not be a good thing. A single government planned road is not the best but it is better than the alternative. Many things can compare to this, usually where it requires stepping on property rights, such as running power/water/gas lines, building roads, and similar. Otherwise keep the government out of it.
