- dagw 3y agoThe developer world can be roughly split up into two camps. Those that are developing software for a single tightly specced hardware/OS combo, and those that are developing software that can be installed by as many people as possible. Neither of them are wrong in their respective approach, but those in the first camp won't care about or understand the problems faced by those in the second camp.
