- kabdib 13y agoServer farm builds. A keyboard macro system that doesn't suck (e.g., is available and /as fast/ as the one in Emacs). A way to compare project configurations without involving either XML or a sea of random dialog-like boxes. The TFS and workflow features they are adding make me weep.

- kabdib 13y agoYeah. But. The VS keyboard macro system has "overengineered" written all over it. Really all they had to do was record some keystrokes. Instead they probably had a team of like four engineers, a bunch of Q/A and several PMs on it, and it took them over a year. And the result /stinks/; it blows dead exploding goats. Sigh.
