Interesting set up, thanks for sharing. Do you write code, or use docker at all?

I write code, yes. I'll just spin up a development VM as needed, things work fine. I don't use Docker, but as long as you're not using the hardware virtualized modes, it should work just fine on namespaces. Every VM is running a full featured Linux kernel. There's just not nested virtualization support, which I'm totally fine with, because nested virtualization on x86 is a rather complex mess to get right.

The main thing you lose is GPU acceleration. I don't particularly care.
