Yes, we need all of that at the same time. Having Spotify running or not doesn't really change the equation much. Not having an IDE when you want to show something in development or want to do a quick Hangout over some code is a bummer. Every new tool changes your workflow and is a distraction that doesn't benefit the customer or our work-life balance anything. Some people on our team run Windows, because they feel at home there. I am not sure you can do a quick 'choco install spotifyd' and be done with it. SSDs are fast, but switching windows is faster. People just forget, what a hassle it is to wait 5 seconds here, and 5 seconds there. We are used to hot-code reloading and basically instantaneous response like more than 95% of the time when developing. That is the power of Clojure/ ClojureScript. It eats a bit more RAM in development. We can live with that as long as the RAM fits in a normal laptop and doesn't cost a fortune. We save much, much more by not running on Heroku/ AWS. :-)
