Indeed a bit of an odd request, but I'm partial to Liz Rice's "Containers from Scratch" talk. Probably one of the most enlightening presentations I've seen in recent years, full-stop. [0] ▶ this video

I loved this hands-on presentation Containers From Scratch by Liz Rice from few years ago ▶ this video . Today, Linux containers in (less than) 100 lines of shell by Michael Kerrisk was published [link] .

Liz Rice has done some awesome on-stage live coding, including a very small container runtime in go. ▶ this video

>I wish there were a tool that could just record everything [...] if you "know" everything, then notes serve no purpose. I guess the completeness of your proposed "auto-memorize-everything" solution depends on what style of notes a person writes. A lot of my notes are annotations or personal commentary that don't exist in the sources of the url text or video. Here's an example of that type of notes I often take... E.g. I found some links that explain how one can grok "Docker" by going through the learning exercise of re-inventing it from basic os features with homemade scripts. But I wrote my own personal notes (in "##")about the limitations of the explanations in the urls: ## these tutorials explain the verb (runtime) but not noun (artifacts of image file) [link] ▶ this video Because content cannot meta-analyze itself and enumerate all the ideas and concepts that are not embedded in its own text, it means a hypothetical indexing engine that converted the 2 links above to searchable data still would not retrieve the extra meta information I wrote. A lot of good notes are generated from your own brain. EDIT add to categorize different types of "notes" to aid discussion: (1) notes as memorization aid such as copying facts : a user writes a note that says "1 inch equals 25.4 millimeters" after seeing it on a webpage or something. So the "universal-record-and-index-everything" would help make these type of notes obsolete because one could just skip writing that note down and just reca
