Agreed. The post feels a bit pedantic; I don't know any dev doing "cool things" with the underlying namespaces/cgroups. They're just using Docker. De-mystifying containers has value, but so does the abstraction.
- mav3rick 7y agoThe abstraction muddles the performance, security etc. impact of these two models. Not knowing them is going to be bad in the long run. Not everyone is a web dev.
- mav3rick 7y agoAnd I'm a dev "doing cool things" with namespaces / cgroups.
- moomin 7y agoPlenty of them using those features, if they’re using Kubernetes, Docker Swarm or especially Istio. They might not know they are, but that’s besides the point.
- jdmichal 7y ago> They might not know they are, but that’s besides the point. I actually thought that was exactly the point here...
- bregma 7y agoYour personal ignorance makes a poor argument. Not only do I know several devs doing cool things with namespaces and cgroup, but I myself have done cool things with namespaces and cgroups. I played with Docker briefly, but it has no real practical application in my line of work.
