When running a command detached, e.g. docker-compose up -d, if the process
fails, you will not see anything on the terminal - no error message, no
indication of failure.
Because of this radio silence, I failed to notice that the mysql container failed to launch.
When debugging or when new to a project, avoid detached processes since they swallow errors silently.
