Your understanding of not-containers is incorrect.
In non-containerized applications, the data & state live outside the application, store in files, database, cache, s3, etc.
In fact, this is the only way containers can decouple programs from state — if it’s already done so by the application. But with containers you have the extra steps of setting up volumes, virtual networks, and port translation.
But I’m not surprised this has to be explained to some people in 2025, considering you probably think that a CPU is something transmitted by a series of tubes from AWS to Vercel that is made obsolete by NVidia NFTs.
Also, Instaface doesn’t need developers. Their product was completed at least a dozen years ago. And it was created by a team of a dozen or so engineers.
We already have POST, PUT, and PATCH that do the exact same thing. Why not have another version of GET that looks the same as POST and is subject to personal interpretation.
FYI:
QUERY is for GET requests where the query string make the URL too long. It does this by sending a body like POST.
In the past, POST meant you were sending a body, and GET meant you received a body. And the people got religious about a pseudoacronym called REST.
The reality is that every middle aged loser knows more than they ever wanted about kpop, labubu, and furries just goes to show it’s all a centralized homogenized monoculture being forced on everyone.
A manager’s job isn’t to guide the company, it’s to make sure his team does the tasks they are assigned. Likewise, a worker’s job isn’t to “think about the big picture” and come up with a strategy for the organization.
So who is supposed to do it? Because executives sure aren’t.
