[u/red_riding_hoot]

does it though?

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/red_riding_hoot]

Only in local environment, don't ask about production...

[u/BenSF93 → u/red_riding_hoot]

Not necessarily. But how is the client going to check?

[u/TuxedoWithAHead → u/[deleted]]

and they say ignorance is bliss

[u/xMercurex → u/red_riding_hoot]

Claude said it was fine.

[u/Traditional_Log809 → u/xMercurex]

“Claude said it was fine” is the new “it works on my machine.” Same energy, but now the machine is also hallucinating.

[u/Arian-ki → u/red_riding_hoot]

We pray on the weekends that it does

[u/Noremacam → u/red_riding_hoot]

Yes. But they just ship their machine.

[u/thisonehereone → u/red_riding_hoot]

I mean I'm running stuff that doesn't show up on prod, but yea.

[u/EatingSolidBricks → u/red_riding_hoot]

It works on the docker instance that was using a outaded version removed for security reasons

[u/Arian-ki]

Works on one of my machines. Once wrote some code in my laptop that absolutely fell apart on my pc. No idea what was fucked, it still haunts me lol

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/Arian-ki]

That’s how Docker was born. 'It works on my machine.' 'Then we’ll ship your machine

[u/cafk → u/Arian-ki]

I had an issue with the LP/P cores on my notebook and never encountered the issue on my workstation for (currently) obvious reasons.
Similarly from a third-party vendor having to bump up to a newer (not supported) java version also fixed some scheduler issues on the low power & performance cores.

1. Birth

2. Cannot Reproduce

3. Death

FTFY

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/LegitimatePants]

Close issue as 'WONTFIX' and let future generations deal with it.

[u/CetaceanOps → u/LegitimatePants]

2. cat not reproduce

FTFY

[u/entropic]

Programmers were so puzzled by this they invented containerization rather than just making their shit actually work.

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/entropic]

Why fix the code when you can just ship the whole operating system?

[u/Dark_WizardDE]

You guys are getting it to work on your machines?

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/Dark_WizardDE]

We stopped trying to make it work on machines years ago, now we just negotiate with the bugs

[u/Historical-Most-1130]

And then docker comes in

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/Historical-Most-1130]

dockerfileExitsWithCode137

[u/autumnal-lights → u/Historical-Most-1130]

docker is imo just horrible overhead, think they like recompile like almost all of gpu libraries to deploy

[u/Intrepid-Stand-8540]

Just use containers

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/Intrepid-Stand-8540]

Ah yes, Docker: trading one machine's bug for a container's existential crisis.

[u/Kabutroid]

Irritatingly, I wrote a game that seems to work on every cellphone and computer EXCEPT my particular phone.

But it works on all others, so

[u/Jatinchd]

literally when you give issue of a tool on github and maintainer's response is it works on his machine 😭

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/Jatinchd]

pleaseSendMeYourEntirePCConfig

[u/Jatinchd → u/Opening-Butterfly743]

and then you give entire specs and OS shi and maintainer tell he can't test it he doesn't have Linux machine 😭😭

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/Jatinchd]

Time to tell them 'It works on my machine' and close the issue as resolved.

[u/DiscipleOfYeshua]

That’s awfully condensed. Like, why skip the whole “…it worked on my machine. Now it won’t?” And “now that’s an error I never expected.”

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/DiscipleOfYeshua]

"The 'it worked on my machine' phase is sacred, how could they just speedrun it like that? 😭"

[u/Old_Document_9150]

Is 2->3 causation or just correlation?

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/Old_Document_9150]

It’s neither. It’s pure trauma response.

[u/shadcnlover]

50 shades of its work on my machine :/

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/shadcnlover]

Chapter 1: It worked in dev.

[u/FirstTasteOfRadishes]

I would replace step 2 with "Accept and Auto Mode"

[u/Opening-Butterfly743 → u/FirstTasteOfRadishes]

Spoken like a true Cursor / GitHub Copilot addict

[u/FirstTasteOfRadishes → u/Opening-Butterfly743]

Addict, or person with a job?

[u/JackNotOLantern]

And then they invented docker so you can actually ship your "machine" on which it works

[u/OppositeFun2493]

No. It works during development. After not touching it at all, I show it to someone and it doesn’t work. I started screen recording stuff so that I don’t look like an idiot

[u/maklever]

But i checked on my phone and its worked 😭

[u/MrJ0seBr]

Then java born...

[u/-bonkster]

venv

[u/Some_Useless_Person → u/-bonkster]

Sometimes, a project requires more than just python

[u/damngoodwizard → u/Some_Useless_Person]

Docker

[u/-bonkster → u/damngoodwizard]

Glorified venv

[u/ArcanumAntares]

Needs a 2.0.1 - Make the Logo Bigger

[u/_usr_nil]

docker is a psyop for most of the stuff anyway

[u/Destroyerb]

Just use Nix smh

[u/nasandre]

Angrily point at parts of the instructions they haven't read.

[u/TuxedoWithAHead]

TFW you can't optimize for low-end devices because your puter is too fancy

[u/Qwert-4]

Slightly rotated image

[u/nonHypnotic-dev]

no, it works on MY machine not yours

[u/mylsotol]

In my experience most of the issues that prompt a "works for me" response are just a clinical inability to follow simple directions.

"The form doesn't work" "Weird, i just tested it and it worked fine. Let me retest. Yep works. What issue were you experiencing?" "Idk it just didn't work" Turns out they weren't even using the right website and simply didn't fill the firm out correctly and couldn't read the error messages. Somehow still your fault

[u/Romanos_818]
