Isn't a docker image basically a universal binary at this point? It's a way to ship a reproducible environment with little more config than setting an ENV var or two. All my local stuff runs under a docker compose stack so I have a container for the db, a container for redis, LocalStack, etc
- mdavid626 7mo agoIs it though? On my Mac Docker runs Linux virtualized. It’s a resource hog. Compare that with simple native binary.
- drzaiusx11 7mo agoI'm not saying it's ideal, just saying that's what we've shifted to for repeatable programs. Your Linux "universal" binary certainly won't work on your Mac directly either...
