I Hate Docker

3 hours ago 40.3K views 0 shares

When you spend 6 hours debugging why your container won't start, only to realize you forgot a single hyphen in your docker-compose.yml file. Then you spend another 3 hours dealing with volume permissions. Then your image size balloons to 4GB because you accidentally included node_modules. Then Docker Desktop eats 8GB of RAM just sitting there. Then you get the dreaded "no space left on device" error and have to prune everything like you're Marie Kondo-ing your entire digital life. But hey, at least "it works on my machine" is no longer an excuse, right? RIGHT?! The relationship between developers and Docker is truly a love story for the ages – except it's all hate and we're all trapped in this containerized nightmare together. 🙃

It Works On My Machine Actual

Debugging Devops Docker Programming Testing

5 hours ago 67.6K views 0 shares

The classic "it works on my machine" defense just got absolutely demolished by reality. Developer's smug confidence about their local environment immediately crumbles when the PM suggests the obvious solution—just ship your whole setup to production. What's beautiful here is how the developer instantly pivots from "works perfectly" to demanding reproducible steps. Translation: "Please don't make me admit I have 47 environment variables hardcoded, a specific Node version from 2019, and three random npm packages installed globally that I forgot about." The PM's response is pure gold because it exposes the fundamental problem—if you can't explain WHY it works on your machine, you haven't actually fixed anything. You've just found a configuration that accidentally works. Docker was invented specifically because of conversations like this.

The CEO's "Next Era" Nightmare

Oh look, it's another tech visionary with a "revolutionary" app cobbled together from Stack Overflow snippets and ChatGPT prompts! Nothing says "I understand software development" quite like a CEO dropping 700 spaghetti-coded files with ML models, LLM calls, and a Docker compose file that would make Kubernetes cry. The poor dev is basically being asked to perform digital necromancy on this monstrosity in just two weeks. That resume update isn't writing itself, buddy!

Kubernetes: The Unauthorized Aging Accelerator

Nothing ages you quite like maintaining a Kubernetes cluster. One day you're a bright-eyed developer pushing your first container, the next you're frantically Googling "why pods evicted" at 2AM while your hair turns gray in real-time. The human body simply wasn't designed to withstand YAML indentation errors and cryptic etcd failures. For every successful deployment, your telomeres shorten by approximately 17%.

The DevOps Balancing Act

OH. MY. GOD. This is the MOST ACCURATE representation of DevOps life I've ever witnessed! 😱 Those poor souls desperately trying to keep those colorful ball pits separated are LITERALLY every DevOps engineer who's ever lived! They're frantically holding back the tide as if their careers depend on it (spoiler alert: THEY DO). One wrong move and BOOM - those beautiful, independent microservices collapse into the dreaded monolith from hell! The absolute NIGHTMARE of watching your carefully crafted architecture turn into one giant, unmaintainable disaster! The irony is just *chef's kiss* - we broke up monoliths to make life easier, and now we're dying trying to keep them from secretly reforming behind our backs. It's like architectural whack-a-mole with our sanity as the mallet!

Stop Doing Cloud Computing

Cloud Devops Hardware Kubernetes Docker

The cloud revolution promised us scalability, high availability, and infrastructure as code. What we got instead was paying AWS $5000/month to run what could've been a $500 desktop PC under someone's desk. Remember when "scaling" meant buying another computer? Before we were sacrificing goats to the Kubernetes gods and writing 200-line YAML files just to deploy a simple app? Docker, Proxmox, Terraform - they've convinced us we need complex container orchestration when most companies barely have enough traffic to warm up a Raspberry Pi. Meanwhile, sysadmins who've been quietly maintaining reliable on-prem servers for decades are watching this circus with their arms crossed. The greatest trick the cloud ever pulled was convincing developers that managing your own hardware was too difficult... right before making them learn 47 new abstraction layers to do the same damn thing.

Ah, the natural progression of a developer's frustration. First, you're battling Python's package manager with its dependency hell and version conflicts. Then you graduate to the special circle of hell that is Docker with its cryptic error messages and massive image sizes. The fancy Pooh represents that moment when you think you've leveled up, but really you've just upgraded to premium suffering. Six years into my career and I'm still writing bash scripts to automate away Docker problems that shouldn't exist in the first place.

Test Suite Setup: The Infrastructure Apocalypse

Oh. My. GOD! This is what passes for a "test suite setup" these days?! 🙄 The absolute AUDACITY of this engineer spinning up TWO ENTIRE DATABASES, Docker containers, and who knows what else just to run some tests! Meanwhile, the person's face says it all - that smug "I'm about to watch the world burn while this monstrosity takes 45 minutes to initialize" expression. The perfect representation of modern development where "simple unit tests" now require their own data center and probably three cloud providers on standby. And they wonder why the coffee machine is always empty!

Ah, the classic "we have food at home" meme but for developers! Kid wants professional CI/CD pipelines, mom says no because there's "CI/CD at home" - which turns out to be a janky collection of config files and shell scripts cobbled together by some poor soul who just wanted to automate deployments without learning Jenkins. It's the equivalent of calling a stick tied to a rock "advanced weaponry." That homemade CI/CD solution is one failed deployment away from bringing the entire production environment crashing down faster than a junior dev's confidence during their first code review.

Malware Blocked: When Your Mac Thinks Docker Is The Enemy

When macOS thinks Docker is malware, it's like your paranoid grandma refusing to let your friend in because they're "dressed suspiciously." The irony of a containerization tool—literally designed to safely isolate applications—being flagged as malicious is peak Silicon Valley drama. Meanwhile, developers everywhere frantically Google "how to convince my Mac that Docker isn't trying to steal its identity" while questioning their career choices.

The eternal developer nightmare: "It works on my machine." Then some wise guy says, "Let's just ship your machine then." And boom—containerization was invented. Docker basically puts your entire development environment in a box and ships it around like a digital FedEx, minus the crushed packages. No more dependency hell or configuration purgatory. Just seal it up and send it off.
