Tags: environment smells

Development environment smells:

- No command line build. This is pure evil. No excuses, ever.
- Build environment tied to a particular IDE. I can't believe that people do this. But they do, sigh.
- No specific development test environment. You need to practice deployment
- Development environment depends on externally managed resources. Database goes down, team stops work. Dumb.
- A development environment that mandates a "reusable framework". Reuse is dead. Build a bridge, get over it.
