Not a valid excuse. The end users have their own productivity apps that eat up their system resources, too.

- magduf 8y agoIn the minds of developers, the end users shouldn't be running any other apps than the the app that the developer is working on.
- rafiki6 8y agoCorrect, it seems much better to create a test bed environment emulating this, rather than artificially constraining a person own development environment due to some poorly thought out policy which is actually likely a way to save money.
- esoterica 8y agoThat's a complete non sequitur. The grandparent comment is not talking about how resource intensive background apps affect the performance of the product, it's talking about how the development tools themselves may not run smoothly and efficiently on shitty hardware if they are resource intensive.
