I see this is about game development, but in the web/server world idk how anyone ever thinks its acceptable to make development impossible on your local laptop/computer. Everyone time I do a code review I need to ensure they didn't break local development. It blows my mind that I need to do it, like they think its ok to build and deploy for every little test. When I first joined I spent so much time just getting it to work on my laptop. I really just don't understand the mindset. This is has been the case in multiple places. Who was this first person to break local development and decide it was ok. Please fire that person, black list them from getting jobs ever again. We have so many tools to make this easy now like docker and yet it still gets messed up.
