I have posted it again because I like the rant a lot and want to share it as much as possible. I did this as a reply to your email because you are producing the same kind of (IMO) monstrosity that they make fun of in the podcast: shipping a development environment as a humongous virtual machine image. I know that our virtual machine image is just one of the alternatives, and not the main way to install and run our development environment, but still, I found the similarity between it and what Microsoft has done to be striking. > Especially when you say in your comment that your reply is not > relevant? Hmm, which comment? I said here that it is "even kinda relevant". "kinda" is short for "kind of" and roughly means here "it is not entirely irrelevant".
