Writing a dockerfile successfully is maybe that. But learning to make a dockerfile should take someone a day to figure out. What the entire movement is about is creating an ecosystem around a common standard for dev ops.
Companies don't have a moral responsibility to do that, but it's a smart retention strategy.

If they feel like the business is investing in them, they'll be more likely to stay.
That's fair. I was particularly referring to the 13", and more so referring to how the article specifically was in context of someone switching from an air to the pro. They all seem to have gone the route of thinner and sexier while sacrificing "proness," though.

It's certainly not the complete future of programming, but it seems like we'll be in the command line and remoting into machines for a long time. It's condescending to write off those concerns as being "in the past."
The person who reviewed this may have been a programmer, but the review doesn't seem to be in context of programming. I care about how well I can work on it, not now well it works with remotes.

That seems to sum up this review. The macbook pro is a successor to the air, not the old macbook pro.
