When putting multiple containers together docker-compose will handle setting up the networking and hostname lookup so that the services can communicate with static names and ports.

Among other things.
In the book Alpert goes on to relate how he had to baby-sit the entire process right down the final mix in order to keep people from messing with it.
1. A GUI comes for free; in LabView each program is two windows, each variable you declare shows up once on your code DAG and then again on your GUI as a switch, text box, slider, etc.
2. National Instruments also had a set of libraries and PCI cards for communicating with lab equipment like benchtop power supplies, voltmeters, and even up to big complex kit like oscilloscopes and exotic telecom protocol emulators.
Those two things enabled people to easily wire up a motley assembly of benchtop instruments and orchestrate them together for a unified test of hardware like circuit boards and so on.
Nowadays EE types have better coding skills and those benchtop instruments all have Ethernet ports and REST API's.
But SpaceX famously uses LabView for some things, most notably for the Dragon flight console.
So the old grading system rated the lighter colored plainer sugars and syrups higher than the darker more flavourful varieties. Since less maple flavour made for a better all-purpose sweetener and a more direct competitor to cane sugar.
Nowadays we usually use maple syrup for the flavour, so the grading system is non-judgemental that way. And the darker grades are more likely what you want.
(which is not to say that awk is _better_ than TCL, they're different things. Only to say that for me TCL has been eclipsed by things like Python or Clojure, while awk still has a few places where it shines quite brightly indeed.)
When buying retail we have the same problem you do; the grocery stores typically only have one brand or two, and there isn't much correlation between the brand and the product.
Early on I went to a support group for laid off employees, and many of them stood up to tell heartbreaking stories of emotional turmoil and bleak prospects. I walked out of there and never looked back. I had a young family and bills to pay. I didn't have time or energy to be someone else's pillar of strength.
I was laid off many times during the Optical Winter of 2001-2006 and developed a system for dealing with it. Handing someone the system and saying "You should do these things" is less helpful than telling the story of "The first time I got laid off I did a, b, c. The second time I had learned my lesson, and did less of a and more of c. The fourth time was different because blah blah blah"
That said, systems for routinely rotating the top of the hierarchy (such as taxation or term limits) are helpful to be sure.
Every single one, without exception, has examples of people at the top of the institution, widely regarded as masters of the system, who are miserable destructive human beings.
This makes me profoundly sad. I could understand if every single group of people had members who are toxic, but the fact that the selection systems for progression are so predictably bad...
IME, the best you can do is to find a small local scene that practices the system in a way that is healthy and nurturing for the members and live with the cognitive dissonance caused by the rot at the top. Whether it's your small neighborhood church, a martial arts dojo or your toastmasters club, these things can be great in the small even if they're awful in the large.
Our units of temporal measurement, from seconds on up to months, are so complicated, asymmetrical and disjunctive so as to make coherent mental reckoning in time all but impossible. Indeed, had some tyrannical god contrived to enslave our minds to time, to make it all but impossible for us to escape subjection to sodden routines and unpleasant surprises, he could hardly have done better than handing down our present system. It is like a set of trapezoidal building blocks, with no vertical or horizontal surfaces, like a language in which the simplest thought demands ornate constructions, useless particles and lengthy circumlocutions. Unlike the more successful patterns of language and science, which enable us to face experience boldly or at least level-headedly, our system of temporal calculation silently and persistently encourages our terror of time.
… It is as though architects had to measure length in feet, width in meters and height in ells; as though basic instruction manuals demanded a knowledge of five different languages. It is no wonder then that we often look into our own immediate past or future, last Tuesday or a week from Sunday, with feelings of helpless confusion. …

"You're going to get a lot of parenting advice, but keep one thing in mind. Those folks aren't telling you how to raise your kid. They're telling you how to raise _their_ kid. But you're not raising their kids, you're raising you're kids. So take all that advice with a grain of salt."
