  • Yes, they have more money than small nations. They are using their CAPITAL to invest. It’s literally a legal requirement to do so in all developed markets, and these are global companies doing so. They are spending your retirement doing it. They’re spending thebinsane amount of money you give them as a fee to do it. They’d be in court today if they were doing what you’re suggesting. In the US, anything designated as a retirement fund is only held my institutions (banks) that designate themselves as such, and SEC regulations prevent them from using any NON-CAPITAL cash from investing in this way.







  • I did this a few years ago for fun. It was a horrible idea, save for one singular use-case: tiny, few layers, single arch, and open-source.

    The TLDR from my own experience: auth won’t work, complex images won’t work reliably, push won’t work, multiarch breaks, inspect breaks, meaning things like Helm won’t work, and most clients won’t work. Its basically just for show, and shouldn’t be done.

    I’m sure I’m missing a few things, but for practical purposes, it’s not useful unless you’re using it for something hyper specific, at which point you may as well use the ‘export’ function to ship containers everywhere, which of course removes all the convenience of the container workflow.

    Sure, it works, and maybe download speeds for the file are faster, but that’s it. Everything else is broken, and then you can’t simply do a “docker pull” to update again in the future.
