I rewatched Wall-E the other day. I forgot just how staggeringly good that movie is. How the hell does every single robot have their own personality. Not to mention how everyone that Wall-E interacts with ends up for the better, after a lil chaos, of course. I cried so many times. I’m 33.
But is it really Window’s fault when a software vendor decides not to support a newer Windows version, or a manager thinks cutting costs by not renewing a support contract is a great idea? I’ve seen plenty of software fail to compile on Linux because of, for example, slightly newer (or older) glibc versions being present. It’s not as if using Linux means software will magically run on every version out there.
That is the problem which containers initially were to tackle. Before I always ran into the issue that two programs need two different versions of a library.
