    I recently found myself forced to give a shit, when one of our projects started doing weird shit after switching to an Alpine-based docker image.

      Can you elaborate? I’m aware alpine uses non-GNU stuff like musl & busybox. But overall, they’re not too far off.

        It was a dependency resolution issue. Npm couldn’t install one of the packages without some package.json gymnastics, and those same gymnastics somehow fucked with our debian based images that we use for development. I can’t say much more because I honestly don’t know what exactly happened. I just diagnosed the issue and forwarded it to our resident node guru, who took it from there.
