Here's a hint: if they had the budget and availability they'd just get a bigger SSD and not write that comment.

Obviously, due to some aspect of their circumstance, be it availability, cost, download speeds, etc. the size of the toolkit is problematic.
I mean there's no intrinsic size for a development toolkit, but I don't know anyone who'd say 60GBs of data is a small development toolkit when as others have pointed out, there are older versions of the same Windows toolchains that still complete the same function and manage to take a fraction of the space...
- dgfitz 4y agoWhat I’m saying is the delta between a very cheap hdd and an ssd is 20 bucks. This whole assuming everyone is destitute is getting rather tiring.
- BoorishBears 4y agoIt's strange that I'm repeatedly explaining you don't even have to be destitute for it to be a problem, but your mind can only latch onto "at the store I have access to with almost everything one could ever want in stock, the price delta is 'only' $20" But yeah, seriously woe is you having to momentarily imagine some people are poor or have trouble getting access to tech. I'm from Ghana so I guess it's not as onerous to imagine people don't live the exact same life I do in the US.
