Yeah, surface simplicity seems to be the heart of what drives tech fads, even if the actual cost in labor and effort is exponentially larger on the back end.

MongoDB? Yes, don't worry about data design or normalization! Just throw that stuff in there, call it anything you want! Finally programmers are free from the tyranny of decent databases. I can't think of any downsides to that arrangement.

Docker? Yeah man, you can just say "docker pull redis" and then you don't even have to bother with Ubuntu getting in your grill with all of its apt-get shenanigans. It's awesome! Now how do we make that port accessible...
