They do seem to be the same, but Vagrant has the advantage of being cross-platform without a VM, unlike Docker, which requires Linux.

a Docker container allows you to move applications and services seamlessly between host servers.
Given how many "sudo apt-get install [fizbin]" commands I have to issue to install just the basic set of tools I'm using in Ubuntu, I really really really have a hard time believing applications (and their thousands of dependencies) can move "seemlessly" between host servers. Unless part of the magic is to synchronize the servers so that they are essentially mirrors of each other.

I was in the same boat of confusion.
Actually if you go to the Docker main site: http://www.docker.com/[^] it quickly shows you what it is. And it is quite amazing.

Two years ago we launched GitHub for Windows as the easiest way to use Git and GitHub on Windows. Today we're shipping a major update that helps you focus more on your work and gives you a more streamlined way of getting that work to and from GitHub. Now with more Gitty goodness

I'm still baffled by how what seems like really simple concepts can be made so freaking complicated.

I always thought it was the old, "You know it's working because it hurts" model of software design.

It's like why Linus insists on using C instead of C++[^] (contains profanity) for the kernel. To keep the riffraff out.
Linus Ranted: C++ is a horrible language. It's made more horrible by the fact that a lot
of substandard programmers use it, to the point where it's much much
easier to generate total and utter crap with it. Quite frankly, even if
the choice of C were to do *nothing* but keep the C++ programmers out,
that in itself would be a huge reason to use C. (emphasis mine)

I can only imagine what would happen if he considered VisualBasic. [nyuk, nyuk, nyuk] Hey, Moe! Hey Moe!* Total & utter paroxysm.
OKay, I admit it, I just posted this so I could use the word paroxysm. It's absolutely paroxysmal of me.
*ala Three Stooges --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_stooges[^]
Plus, I really wanted to mention the Three Stooges. But seriously, Linus and VisualBasic don't belong together.

Finally, Github for my old Windows 2.0[^] machine.
I'm never upgrading!

I also read it that way at first. I thought, do I need to unpack my 286 now?

Followup - what an utter piece of crap. It appears there is no way to connect to an existing repository already cloned on my box.
Did it not occur to the designers that someone may want to do that???

What do you mean? Surely if it's cloned on your box it's already connected to the remote repo?

Of course it is, but there's now way for me to tell the GitHub Windows app that there's a folder with an already cloned repository!
Or am I missing something? Does this thing do anything more than create/clone repositories? I thought it let you do things like commits, merges, branches, etc.

Aah I understand. I gave up on the Windows app a long time ago, I use the Git SCM tools for Windows, really good

I'll give that a try. I've been using SmartGit/Hg and, while it works, it just feels a bit klunky. For example, it's constantly losing my authentication when I push commits (which may have been solved in a newer version, but when I tried that, the SSH keys needed to be reconfigured for some known reason!)

I use the command line tools as well, as I find them easier to use (sometimes). I use the built-in Git gui (gitk) sometimes as well, and I have been looking at TortoiseGit.

What is the essence of C++? Why did it succeed despite its well-understood flaws? What lessons - if any - can be applied to newer languages? Sorry, I usually don't link to videos, but it's Bjarne!

Great minds think alike (etc.) I was originally going to look up the lyrics to that damned song and use that for the blurb, but then it would be going through my head all week.
Much better to have the Badger Song.

Would lyrics about violently abusing an idiot in a dorky costume really be appropriate for the insider anyway?

I took a C++ class at local college in 1989 and the teacher stumbled over his name calling him Barn-jee and then said, 'I love you, you love me, we all love Barn-jee...' So the joke is only about 25 years old. I guess you've stumbled upon a classic.
But I see here at CP that makes the joke just about ripe.
We're all stuck on Windows 3.1 anyway. Not even Windows 3.11. It was the best. INI files and real DOS. We all miss it.
