If Docker, Inc. went bankrupt, nothing fundamental breaks: the tooling is replaceable, and the standards are independent and long-standing.

I don&#39;t know what the future brings. We need to leverage this generation-defining technology as a multiplier, and stay curious enough to ask whether fast satisfaction is the same thing as progress. Empirical evidence over dopamine hits, ideally.
