Papyrus is the top SNL skit of all time. The next one is Grouch (Sesame street x Joker parody). What would be #3?
Chris Farley's "Down by the River" skit is my #1 of all time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv2VIEY9-A8

It takes sixty-five thousand errors before you are qualified to make a rocket.

Just because you do SSG doesn't mean you can't run _any_ javascript. This seems like a lot of work to just put a little JS button on the site.
I deleted Uber after all of this, but You are wrong. I lived in SF during 2010-2012 and calling taxis was a huge pain. I started using Uber when it was only black cars because they showed up. I would call yellow cab and after an hour they didn't even show up, so I called them again and they said "well, if you didn't see a car after 20 mins, you should have called back."
I had another experience in LA in 2014 where I got yelled at by a taxi driver because HIS card reader was broken and my credit card was flat so he couldn't use the old style imprint.
The taxis can suck it. They are unclean, expensive, and have irrational drivers that think they can push around their customers because they know there was no need to improve due to regulation.
While I support Lyft now instead of Uber, the ride sharing business is just the competition the industry needs to shake it's complacency.

Since when is Flocker competing with those platforms? It's designed to work with them. http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/volumes/#flocker
I never said it was competing. I said it didn't seem to fit nicely. I run several very large clusters, and we evaluated Flocker and it didn't fit nicely into ecosystem. It felt very "bolted on".

Or maybe the technology wasn't correct for what most people are trying to do with Docker these days. Flocker never felt like it quite fit in the ecosystem along with Mesos, Kubernetes, etc.
Great efforts guys, the tech is cool, but technology will continue to evolve and if you bought into something completely that doesn't fit nicely with the movement, you will get left behind.
Edit: not sure why the downvotes, I was not being sarcastic. The comments about why "pioneers get arrows" in the post made it seem like they had a perfect product, the world was just not ready for it.
Well, no, transit isn't dead. But when your traffic volume rises to one of the top N -- let's say, N approximates 10 -- sources/destinations of the entire Internet, you discover it's cheaper to run your own global networks.
And that's what Google, Facebook, and Amazon, at the very least, have done: bought fiber, hired network engineers, and designed things that work efficiently for them. If YouTube is 90% of Google's traffic, it's not surprising that Google's network looks like a CDN. Amazon wants to interconnect their AWS datacenters to lower their internal traffic costs. Facebook wrote a new routing protocol (Open/R).
Riot Games built their own backbone as well.

But science? That's something that IMHO should be paid for with tax money, so that it is accessible for everyone without consideration of one's ability to have money that can be bled.
Sure for me, $20/mo is fine, in fact, I work on AI systems, so I can mostly just use my employer's keys for stuff. But what about the rest of the world where $20/mo is a huge amount of money? We are going to burn through the environment and the most disenfranchised amongst us will suffer the most for it.
