Tracking developer build times to decide if the M3 MacBook is worth upgrading

I too come from Blaze and tried to use Bazel for my personal project which involves backend + frontend dockerized, the build rules got weird and niche real quick and I was spending lots of time working with the BUILD files making me question the value against plain old Makefiles, this was 3 years ago, maybe the public ecosystem is better now.

I use Basel for C++. I would write normal dockerfile if I need it. Bazel docker support is an atrocity. For JS builds I also use regular TSC.

rules_docker is now deprecated but rules_oci[0] is the replacement and so far I find it much nicer

You may pry my Dockerfiles from my cold dead fingers :)
