Given the tendency to use containers these days for various reasons, there's presumably an argument that you could just make that the expected practice. It's still more principled than just downloading and running a single binary unikernel in the container, though exactly what you would gain is a mystery to me (Gentoo points?)
- colemickens 10y agoI've gotten to the point where I scoff at projects that expect me to install hours of crap and dependencies at specific versions and can't bother to encode it as a Dockerfile. Like, come on, you had to figure out how to get this installed, eventually you're going to have to do it again, why not document it with code (Dockerfile) and never do it again? Ironically, just watched someone whine about open source projects using Docker for dev on the 19th and then praising Docker for basically the same thing on the 22nd. Docker isn't magic and no one says it is and people yelling against that strawman are just making themselves look ignorant.
