writing tests requires sometimes thousands of lines of boilerplate like setting up mocks, crafting assertions, isolating the test environment and data, etc. testing is important but engineers hate doing all the leg work to set them up. if

ok but when the title of the article is “linux doesn’t have photoshop” and the article is set up to be an answer to that belief you can understand how some people might be confused

If you’re using a React pipeline on the remote server, how quickly does the page refresh occur? I do remote VM development where I work and a major pain point for me is how long it takes to refresh a page that I’m working on.
