On the Docker-Kubernetes announcement: if Kubernetes does so much, do you still use Docker?

Must read: [WayBack] Some Thoughts on the Docker-Kubernetes Announcement – Scott’s Weblog – The weblog of an IT pro specializing in cloud computing, virtualization, and networking, all with an open source view

Via a thread with great comments: [WayBack] Two weeks ago, Scott Lowe mused about the Docker-Kubernetes announcement. https://blog.scottlowe.org/2017/10/17/some-thoughts-on-docker-kubernetes-anno… – Kristian Köhntopp – Google+

XS4ALL has stopped providing ftp in the middle of 2017: now you can use sftp or sftp.

Posted by jpluimers on 2017/12/03

As of 20170711, the servername ftp.xs4all.nl does not support the ftp protocol any more; xs4all clients can only use the server sftp.xs4all.nl on port 22.

I missed that because I hardly use ftp except for the few rare occasions where I was in an environment without ftp.

So recently I found out: good move!

Since I still need this every now and then (but far less often than 10 years ago), I have set up a very small ftp server at home with limited storage and very limited users that I can turn on/off when needed.

Much better solution.
