Yeah, you're probably right. Originally that line was in there when I had a breakdown of what each line in the docker-compose was doing. My editor thought that was unnecessary - it's unlikely people reading the post would need that kind of breakdown. So I rewrote parts to assume more baseline knowledge. I should have noticed that line and taken it out.
You're right about what we're trying to do, and I agree that the post doesn't really help someone be successful today deploying things. The post is more meant to gauge whether or not I'm alone in having pain deploying a couple dozen services with docker compose on a single box.
I want more people to have the power to host their own services. I think we can do that, but we have to figure out the right thing to build to do it.
