It sounds pretty cool until the point where you read something like: "Deployment is risky because you’ve only tested on your own machine, and now you need to run the same code on many different machines, to serve (millions of) users." Which makes it seem like they don't even know about the existence of Docker; making me doubt most of what they'll try to sell us.

Founder of Dark here. Here's a thing I wrote about docker before, that led me to create Dark. https://circleci.com/blog/its-the-future/

Don't get me wrong, I understand where you're coming from and what your goals are; it'll be grand if Dark can deliver on its promises. I just don't understand why that particular statement on deployment had to be included, as it makes it sound like you're solving a problem with an existing solution.

Unfortunately when you do press, you're at the mercy of whatever gets quoted and sometimes things that are kinda irrelevant get picked up. That's definitely not the thing we wanted as the lead. Our blog post on it was different: https://medium.com/darklang/dark-announces-3-5m-in-seed-fina...

That's a fair point. Regardless of my current impression, I'll have to try it out first hand in order to form a proper opinion, so looking forward to the public release. Good luck!
