They're not even loosely placed gaffer tape. It's some random bash they copied from some random that copied it from some random container that copied it from some random container that was built by somebody who just copied it from a stackexchange post from 2013.

Well, that's just fucking cursed. So not only do they not know bash or unix, they also don't know containers.

sling containers around in kubernetes, all dependencies in containers. the app is a container. the server uses all its 4GB which will be 8GB next week. this is fine

look inside the container? no it's a container what do you mean look inside

you could argue that playing lego with containers is a more efficient use of human time, and i'm sure they do

but also it keeps turning out abstractions are made of loosely placed gaffer tape

In retrospect it's clear the USSS was aiming to become the go-to federal agency for computer crime cases (i.e. a turf grab), and this ill-conceived raid was their effort to grasp that big ring. It blew up in their face, and the FBI has handled computer crime cases ever since.

That the legislature rather than the executive controls when and if the nation goes to war was one of the most specific, deliberate, and extensively explained changes the Constitution made from the British model. "This is a power the crown had but the president won't" was absolutely unambiguous.
