Will suppose that bulk of you people are corporate minions doing desktop or web stuff. At home and at work do 'deeply' embedded code. Assembly and C, with some Python honey poured on top to fill in the cracks. So perhaps it is a POV thing - huge company stuff done by several programmers vs small little black box stuff done by one or two EEs. But a good tool, however mundane the task, will always be fun. This is my second Law of Engineering.

There is a reason why Make wasn't implemented with the features and design objectives of Bazel. > But a good tool, however mundane the task, will always be fun. This is my second Law of Engineering. A good tool will always be fun where "good" is based on your criteria, which is based on your context.
