I just took his point to be, much simplified:
Moving to docker is not free and the team should honestly evaluate whether those resources would be better spent making fixes to the underlying problem. Instead of using docker to sweep the problem under the rug under rug while getting credit for being modern and utilizing the best and latest tools available.
His final response was not to you, but to all the people dockerizing php apps without honestly tallying up the real cost/benefit due to a biased affinity and comfort with languages no longer suited to the changing world.
That's just my tl;dr of his argument, not an endorsement.
- Lazare 8y agoYes, and I agree with that point, but my original comment was made in the context of an article that (in my view) was making a very different point, and I don't think my comment makes sense out of that context, nor do I think the author really engaged with what I was saying. Certainly the rhetorical questions which immediately followed his quotation of my comment were totally irrelevant to anything I believe I actually said.
