>I did make a bunch of money with Docker
Shortly before this (the weekend after you secured YC funding, IIRC), I['m almost certain I] met you in downtown Oakland at Saagar & Tiffany's /r/bayarea meetup [0] – won't go into further details, other than I was one of their co-conspirators =P
My point of writing this is dualfold:
1) Thank you for sharing your design – I literally just installed my first Docker module (last week) and am floored at all the problems Docker might help me solve (I am not employed in tech)
2) My recollections of you, this decade+ later, was of a humble young man (we're the same age) that didn't know what else to do with his newfound techfame (and money) than keep'on keepin'on.
After watching your Docker Debut video, I'm fairly certain it WAS you: we chatted about dirtbikes (and just what the hell you were going to do now that you "had money" – then such a foreign concept to us both)... if this wasn't you it still seems to echo in your mannerisms/tact/approach. May your humbleness and cleverness prevail!
[0] It might have been at Gustafson's NYE party (I was the guy remorselessly conjuringbitches; "Volcano"); we had a mutual friend at MalwareBytes?
