    Not just OSX: anyone using WSL on windows is an offender too

    But as a WSL user, dockerised Dev environments are pretty incredible to have running on a windows machine.

    Does it required 64 gig of ram to run all my projects? Yes. Was it worth it? Also yes

    Image Transcription: Meme


    A photo of an opened semi-trailer unloading a cargo van, with the cargo van rear door open revealing an even smaller blue smart car inside, with each vehicle captioned as “macOS”, “Linux VM” and “Docker” respectively in decreasing font size. Onlookers in the foreground of the photo gawk as a worker opens each vehicle door, revealing a scene like that of russian dolls.

    When I was in school I once used a IOS emulator running inside a docker container of MacOS running on a linux machine. It works surprisingly smoothly.
