I'm a Systems Reliability and DevOps engineer for Netdata Inc. When not working, I enjoy studying linguistics and history, playing video games, and cooking all kinds of international cuisine.
The flip side though is that sometimes you want (or even need) to always be using the latest versions of dependencies. For example, where I work we use Docker as part of our process of building native DEB/RPM packages for various distros (because it lets us make the process trivially portable), and in that case, we always want to be building against whatever the latest versions of our dependencies are so that the resulting package installs correctly.
In such a situation, caching the Docker build results can cause that requirement for tracking the latest dependency versions to be violated.
