Can we stop pretending that Docker is great for development environments?

The text discusses the author's experience with using Docker for local development and concludes that it is not beneficial for most development stacks due to its complexity and lack of benefits. The main issue arises from the need for separate "non-production" container definitions, which negates one of the primary advantages of using containers. Additionally, the author found no compelling advantages in using Docker for local development after setting up a working solution with docker-osx-dev and boot2dorker. The author suggests that running backing services like databases, caching, storage, etc., in Docker makes sense but not for local development of compiled languages.
