  • Math.min isn’t the minimum integer; it’s the minimum of a list (and max visa versa)… the min/max of an undefined list is the same… IDK what it is, but this probably the most reasonable of the “WTFs” they could have put there i think… other languages would throw an exception or not compile (which JS definitely SHOULD do instead of this, buuuuut lots of JS has aversions to errors)

    *edit: okay the curiosity was killing me: Math.min() is Infinity and Math.max() is -Infinity

    a chroot is different, but it’s an easy way to get an idea of what docker is:

    it also contains all the libraries and binaries that reference each other, such that if you call commands they use the structure of the chroot

    this is far more relevant to a basic understanding of what docker does than explaining kernel namespaces. once you have the knowledge of “shipping around applications including dependencies”, then you can delve into isolation and other kinds of virtualisation
