"“I would line up the angles so I was hidden from the teacher’s view,” he says, adding that he found out years later that an enlightened principal had instructed teachers to allow it. "
These days many services ask for a phone number for 2FA just to sign up, it'd be great to have a tool that gave you multiple numbers on demand so you don't have to give out your phone number.
I've been considering just buying a few prepaid SIM cards just for services like this. I'd love some throwaway phone number/ SMS-forwarding services, but most get blacklisted within a few months because spammers immediately jump all over them.
It's great that industry standards like Git are taught. I wish introductory computer science at my school included coding, never underestimate the power of piquing a student's interest. Many more of my classmates might be interesting in coding if our CS101 was done right.
I've been using Docker, I love it. Hope to weigh the pros and cons of Swarm and Kubernetes and try those out too, but for most of my applications networked Docker containers are sufficient.
Maybe I'm missing something, but any changes you made to the application would not be saved, correct?
For example in Chrome assuming you downloaded something, you would have to specify the target location as your native filesystem, not the overlay filesystem in the docker container.
Is it possible to do that?
You can bind mount folders between the host and container. (--volume option with docker for example)
So that when you write in container's Download folder it would also actually be in your host's filesystem.
