When I went to high school we used windows XP. I took an accounting class that used Excel and by some keen insight and nifty use of formulas and copy->paste values, I was able to get down with in class work exceptionally fast and often had a good hunk of time left over. I decided to play a SNES emulator in my spare time, on a USB stick. I had to sit towards the back. But the machines were locked down and I couldn't run any plain old .exe I had on a stick. But XP had a zip file view, and I could launch the exe from there. The last thing I needed to do was preconfigure saves and the controls to point at the correct thumb drive letter since it was different at home than it was at school. Now I've moved on the real world, but that time of mindset sticks with me. That software doesn't do what you want in an automated way? Surely there's a way to do that. Autowiring JSPs in a mixed Spring/JSP legacy java app, writing custom jenkins plugins, a custom code coverage library to performantly calculate code coverage against minified JS, etc.
