That's even worse - imagine trying to make the cope and drag from stone - they'd weigh a ton, and the mould itself would have to be really simple as it would need to be carved.

I'm glad you did

Yes indeed - and by definition, nobody can achieve their life long ambition, unless that ambition involved their demise.

I sometimes think it is the most important environment of all. However, some...most, don't. Yet they want me to pull great things out of my arse. I tell them, I can't shoot fireworks and daisies out of my arse without a proper functioning dev environment.
WTF, Bilbo!!

Pretty addicted to Visual Studio, myself. If I have to work on a language that's not natively supported, like PHP, I get an add-on like VS.PHP. I even bought the addon for Arduino development because the one that comes with it sux.
Having to learn a new environment's operation, look and feel is a distraction is why, I guess.

I was going more for inconsistent data in the databases, under-performing servers, etc...
BTW, I hope you are using Visual Studio in a development environment, versus let's say, production.

Ah, I see...when you say 'development environment', to me it means the software you use to write and test code

To me that is a tool, not an environment.

Ah well, to each his own...when I started programming we used MS DOS Edit and command line compiler to build it...and it was a luxury compared to using MS DOS Edlin, which was a luxury over BASIC on Radio Shack TRS-80
From that perspective, Visual Studio is an all in one development environment because you never have to leave it.

We often moan about VS don't we (slow, bloated...)? And then occasionally we encounter something similar and find it's even worse.

After working years (too many) with outdated bcb6 (Borland c++ Builder 6), I'm fascinated from VS.

Pretty damn important I'd say. The quality of the tools and environment has definitely an impact on the quality of the endresult.

Exactly.

Unclear. I think the other responders assume you mean "IDE", but that's not how I read it. Please edit and clarify your post.
I, myself, have worked a few times with only a production environment and it was fine. Lesser developers would have run screaming.

The ashtray next to my keyboard was once deemed a piece of the equipment we could not do without.
So, they were replaced with potted plants. Works equally well as an ashtray ofcourse, but the plants usually die after a day or two.

Then you would be one who takes his laptop to a "gentlemen's club" and works from there?

If this music is evidence of intelligent life, the interstellar FCC should be on the way to shut our down our transmitters.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

It's all wrong. I wouldn't be listening to any of those songs if I could avoid it - except a couple perhaps.
I didn't wait until the end of time - how far out does it go?

Cannot be bothered to Google it; but wasn't there some 'scientist' that needed money to send information to the stars?
Imagine, one of the first things an alien species sees of our culture, is World War II.
