Fixed Docker Build

Ah, the classic "Scooby-Doo villain reveal" but with a software architecture twist. The company proudly announces their fancy microservice architecture, but when the developer pulls off the mask, surprise! It's just a distributed monolith underneath. For the uninitiated: a distributed monolith is when you split your application into separate services that look like microservices, but they're so tightly coupled they can't be deployed independently. So you get all the complexity of microservices with none of the benefits. It's like buying a sports car but filling the trunk with concrete.

The eternal false confidence of local development! That blissful moment when your tests pass perfectly on your machine, and you're ready to push to production with a smug coffee sip. Then reality hits harder than a null pointer exception—the CI pipeline turns your code into a digital dumpster fire. Classic environment discrepancy nightmare. Your local setup with its special snowflake dependencies, cached artifacts, and that one weird config file you forgot to commit is NOTHING like the sterile CI environment. The face says it all—from "I'm a coding genius" to "I've made a terrible mistake" faster than you can type git revert .

Ah, the classic Docker bloat syndrome. Why create a svelte 50MB image with just what you need when you can ship a 2GB monstrosity that includes three Linux distros, a complete JDK, and somehow Visual Studio? The "minimal container" is just a theoretical concept developers tell themselves exists while they casually add another layer with "just one more dependency." By Friday, your microservice needs its own ZIP code.

Developer: "It works on my machine..." Manager: "Then we'll ship your machine." The punchline? That's literally how containerization was invented. Docker is just your laptop in a trench coat pretending to be a production environment. Now instead of blaming the server, we blame the YAML file. Progress.

Jumping into DevOps without Linux fundamentals is like trying to swallow those giant horse pills without water. Trust me, I've watched countless "Docker experts" crash and burn because they couldn't troubleshoot a basic shell script. The title "Also Git" is perfect - because Git is another one of those deceptively simple tools that will absolutely wreck your week when something goes wrong. Nothing quite like the cold sweat of a botched rebase on production code at 2AM. Been there, broken that.

The eternal struggle of software architects: sweating profusely while staring at two buttons that represent opposing architectural philosophies. One promises the trendy complexity of microservices everywhere, the other suggests keeping things simple. Meanwhile, their finger hovers over the microservices button as if drawn by some mysterious force that compels them to overcomplicate everything. Nothing says "enterprise solution" quite like turning a simple CRUD app into 47 independently deployable services that require their own dedicated SRE team.
