Question: Possible for Docker to die as a company; VC's lose their money; the technology survives and is still the mainstay? if the answer is no, what's the future and what do you expect the timeline will be? have a probability of that actually occurring?

I don’t know how Docker Hub falling by the wayside plays out. I suppose most cloud providers really should offer their own container image repo mirrors or something instead. But it’ll be painful

Wild to me that Docker inc. Doesn’t just charge to pull prebuilt images. Just send docker files!

Yeah, I would like to build something against FROM debian:wheezy.

Yes, this is the default assumption.
