Configuration management Memes

The eternal cycle of developer suffering, perfectly captured. First, the innocent dev proudly declares "it works on my machine" – the programmer's equivalent of "not my problem." Then the soul-crushing response: "Then we'll ship your machine." The punchline hits like that production bug at 4:59pm on Friday – Docker swoops in to save us from ourselves by packaging everything into containers. No more dependency hell, no more "but it worked locally!" excuses. Just pure, containerized salvation. The real miracle is that it only took us decades of suffering to figure out we should stop torturing each other with environment inconsistencies.
