CI systems want Docker images for testing. No problem, #Nix enables me to build one *deterministically*...
But uploading the images to the docker server is crawling to a halt, as well as my entire Internet connection...
because of docker's totally buggy network layer. Idiots.
The situation is much worse: either you control the base image, or you don't. In the first case, you might as well use Nix to ensure you can reproduce it. In the latter case, you're completely, deeply, fucked. In no case whatsoever is Docker helping.

You don’t have to control the base image. If it’s an OS with no additional layers, you’re good. If it’s a 3rd party, the Dockerfile for it is on GitHub which you can read.

Does dockerhub actually verify that the image was created with the Dockerfile?
