Docker vs jQuery

jQuery started first, in 2006, 7 years before Docker.

Why Docker lasted

  • A Dockerfile is a unit of thought. Kubernetes did not replace that noun.
  • Docker Hub plus the desktop app kept developers even after the orchestration wars.

Why jQuery lasted

  • It is still on a terrifying number of pages because WordPress plugins and old dashboards never die.
  • The $() brain is how a generation learned the DOM.
