  > The FAANGs that gave me offers seem to think otherwise... If you judge your capability by which FAANGs give you offers I don't know what to tell you. The only FAANG I personally respect implicitly is Netflix because they have a well documented culture and they basically cast off a ton of their old stuff as open source and you can see how far ahead they are. Still this doesn't mean every engineer at Netflix is a good one or doesn't have things to learn/things they can't do. BTW speaking of FAANGs, Google does their builds and tests with Bazel -- which they invented to suit. Developer tooling is definitely. I don't know where Bazel sits vs linux containers on the complexity scale, but it's certainly not simple. > Guess I struck a sore spot here. Nope I just... honestly mean that, with no particular malice directly at you. I find that when I work with/on teams that have developers that just can't tolerate anything outside their own realm (self professed "frontend" engineers who hate backend/ops/anything else) it really holds everyone back. For example when a small squadron of developers if vehemently against containers just because they can't see the benefits (this was a lot more common ~5 years ago), without having spent time to understand the technology. Creating good UX for those developers is one thing, but the restriction of the solution space to something suboptimal just because people don't understand and choose not to research/understand technology is frustrating to me so it's not a good place for me to work.
