One of my questions was "What is a container?"
I got a bunch of metaphors and "like a VM, but not a VM". Exactly zero people mentioned cgroups or linux namespaces.
The problem is at the very root: Lots of people using containers, not knowing what a container even is. These people were fairly good DevOps engineers and heavy users of containers. Yet, they weren't unable to define what is a container.
