Less relevant these days with Docker, but yeah, I get your point. There have been a number of posts on HN in the past few months about the complexity of dependencies between gems, and how many of Ruby's performance issues are actually due to these types of dependency issues (your app's performance used to be good, till someone changed a method in a module that another module you use depended on and made it 5% slower, except that module used it 30 times per call, so the resulting code was 50-100% slower).
- tibbon 10y agoMaybe/kinda? I used to teach at General Assembly, at at least when I was there adding the layer of Docker for complexity, on top of RVM/RBenv, Rails, etc... was seen as too much. In my current company, we also haven't moved to Docker. A few people use it for a few things, but I'm not running it yet myself. Definitely not a universal, and I'm actually kinda unsure where to get started with it in my daily workflow.
