Docker Building

I’ll give it a pass as parody, but you really should include the source material.
xkcd 303
- Yes. Sorry. I expected everyone to know this, but in hindsight this is of course a bad assumption.
10 years ago this meme said "compiling" shows how much docker has made things more "efficient"
- We've created this hell for ourselves
  
  For me, Docker has been amazing. It’s probably my single most favorite tool in my tool belt. It has made my life so much easier over the years. It’s far from hell for me! 🐳
- Tbh, all of web development has become this... efficient. I remember the days where I could create a website in PHP and have it done in a couple of hours (per page), and now the only way I can do that would be using AI and going full on "vibe coding" mode.
  
  PHP still exists though.
  
  What do you mean? You can just make some react/typescript template and fastapi server thing, or any of dozens of equivalents, extremely quickly. I'm by no means an expert on web stuff as I develop software for controlling machines, but we used the above for some internal services in my last job and I could get a clean and functional site running in a day with no prior experience. I get that for public facing stuff you'll have some higher requirements but I couldn't imagine those wouldn't apply just because you're coding in PHP...
Visual Studio is starting
- Any minute now...
  
  Restoring 1226 nuGet packages...
Someone doesn’t know how to leverage Docker BuildKit
- Is there more to it than using multistage builds when appropriate?
  
  Oh yeah there is a lot you can implement to really get the most out of your architecture via docker and minimize your build times.
  One is using BuildKit with BuildX and Docker Build Cache.
  BuildX is the one I highly recommend getting familiar with as it’s essentially an extension of BuildKit.
  I’m a solutions architect so I was literally building with these tools 15 minutes ago lol. Send any other questions my way if you have any!
  
  Not really, no.
I'm waiting for the LLM to reply
I was going to watch a tuto on how to be more efficient but YouTube is still buffering
- Delayed because of your ad-blocker :p
  
  I swear it's gonna load any second now and I'll be able to do something productive!
  Still better than ads, though 😄
DevOps, not programmer.
- I wonder what the dev part of devops means.
  
  Devil 👿
  
  Short for devine
  
  At my previous job, we had a "Devops" team. We even outsourced some ops to a third party in the worst possible way (I'm talking "oh you want to set up an alert for something related to your service? Send us an email and we'll look into it" and so on). All the pre-devops pain magnified by an order of magnitude. Sometimes devs would do their own ops (I know, big shock!), and they would call it "shadow devops". Nearly fell off my chair when I first heard it. Kinda glad I'm not with them anymore.
- Why not? Why doesn't the programmer want to test a container?
  
  True. Nothing beats running your unit tests in the actual container image that will be run in production.
- Most programmers are interacting with containers these days.
  The real question is why their build is taking so long.
  
  Because of a few strategically placed wait commands.
- Guess I must turn in my programmer-badge.
  
  Apparently doing more than one thing makes you not a programmer 😔
- what if I'm doing my programming inside a devcontainer?
  
  How often do you rebuild the image?
- Devops isn't a role.
  Platform Engineer maybe, but even then I'd say they were "developing" the platform.
  
  Devops engineer is a role.
