The logging framework isn't a bottleneck, and other lies your laptop tells you

At my internship, one of the senior developers (a great guy, wish we had stayed in touch more), joked about building a company out of developer's machines (like a, Developer Machines As A Service type thing), so then, software will always work. After all, it works on MY machine!

Isn't that what Docker basically is?

(I know, jokes should be down to a minimum on YC, but this was too relevant).

I mean, this isn't really a joke. this is basically the major target audience for programs like docker and vagrant.

I recently got a job and that’s how it is here. (I’m not sure if they’re actually VMs, they’re very powerful machines.)

One of the first things you do when you get hired here as a developer is request that a machine get provisioned for you in the data center and provide your public ssh key. You’re not allowed to do anything on the MacBook they give you other than mail/wiki/chat/ssh. IMO it’s pretty brilliant.

One extra nice thing is that the OPs people rather than the corporate IT people manage it so it actually works well.
