Try a WPF app...

From the site: Docker is the world’s leading software containerization platform.
I didn't know 'containerization' was a thing.

They have thingified it.

I use it for cross compilation without cluttering the file system or accidentally referencing a native element of the tool chain ... almost like a temporary chroot jail. And I can easily share the environment with other members of the team.
Other teams at my company use it for deploying services across a server farm.

Here's a use case for you. Google released an English language parser based on their tensorflow machine learning platform. I could download all the code from their git repository, set up a VM with all the right Java bits, and go through a 3 hour compilation process, and maybe get everything built successfully...
...or, I can download their Docker image and run that image in a Docker container on my machine in a fraction of the time and get to playing with the English parser which is what I was really interested in.
I'm not a Docker expert, but I've been dabbling in it and I see potential. As others have mentioned, it really depends on your use case (insert quote about everything looking like a nail when you're holding a hammer). In my opinion, it is a slightly different take on virtualization. It seems more lightweight than other virtualization platforms (I have used VMware in the past, tend to use VirtualBox these days), but part of that is because it appears aimed at temporary resources.
Hope this info helps!
Cheers,
Carl

OK. Thats a cool use case.

It works for me well with neo4j, the graphing database. I was able to use it for multiple instances of neo on the same server. So far no problems.

Hm, I wonder if this would work for running a Windows game on Linux. You don't port the game, you just pop it into an appropriately provisioned Docker container and it's now 'Linux' compatible.
|

No, Docker runs on linux hosts, and merely segregates the running container from the underlying OS. There is no "translation" of Windows-specific functionality to linux equivalents.

Did anyone fire Republicons at the hospital?
The only things known to go faster than ordinary light is monarchy, according to the philosopher Ly Tin Weedle. He reasoned like this: you can’t have more than one king, and tradition demands that there is no gap between kings, so when a king dies the succession must therefore pass to the heir instantaneously. Presumably, he said, there must be some elementary particles — kingons, or possibly queons — that do this job, but of course succession sometimes fails if, in mid-flight, they strike an anti-particle, or republicon. His ambitious plans to use his discovery to send messages, involving the careful torturing of a small king in order to modulate the signal, were never fully expanded because, at that point, the bar closed. --- The Late, Great, Terry Pratchett, "Mort"

Wikipedia seems to think so: List of longest-reigning monarchs - Wikipedia[^]
If Bess manages to eke out another 2068 days or so, she'll pass him for length of time on the throne, too. She might even make the top of the list of all time longest monarchs, though unlikely. In order to do so she would have to live past her 108th birthday. That's not an impossibility. The Queen Mum hit 101, so there might be some longevity genes in the pool.

Nope, it dont. It looks like all future monarchs are going to be 60+ by the time they ascend the throne. Not sure what that will do for the Monarchy after Liz leaves us.
|
|
|
|
|
Well 60+ is fine if they all live to 100 right? That's still a good few decades on the throne...
Or we could role out the guillotine for anyone who ascendsthe throne at 60+...

Meh. Does it really count if you become king/queen when you're still in diapers?

It sure did during the Middle Ages, when said royal baby would often be prevented from becoming anything else, the hard way.

Is anybody currently in line for the throne "prevented from becoming anything else"? Ignoring the option to abdicate, I suppose...
|
|
|
|
|
Probably not, regicide is so out of fashion these days.

Tell them you'd be happy to review them, in exchange for a perpetual, royalty-free license (Including future bugfixes) to all the products you'll be reviewing, regardless of how you rate it...
Hey, some of those grid controls are expensive... I dunno about you, but I'm sick of rolling my own...
EDIT: Oh, and ask for source code too... in case they're pushing malware. Gotta be sure, right?

They want a review?
Too easy:
The company comprises inveterate spammers, which means that they are unlikely to be trustworthy and reliable. I therefore forewent testing their products, in favour of staying well away from them.
