  • Absolutely possible if you keep the network setup simple. However, I run different sets of containers as different users, some of which also use services from the host itself (such as a PostgreSQL instance), and things quickly become more complex in these situations. The examples on the github helped me a lot to realise everything I wanted.




  • I usually tell people running MySQL that they would probably be better off using a NoSQL key-value store, SQLite, or PostgreSQL, in that order. Most people using MySQL don’t actually need an RDBMS. MySQL occupies this weird niche of being optimised for mostly reads, not a lot of concurrency and cosplaying as a proper database while being incompatible with SQL standards.






  • 3/4? That’s fucked up, over here it’s roughly half and it’s still too much. Anyway, for specific areas there might be reasons to deviate from the timezone you’re supposed to be in, but for most people it is the best option. Over here (NL) our default timezone is already one hour too early, so adding summer time on top of that means we’re two hours out from where we’re supposed to be.
