Build Servers – Love ‘em & Hate ‘em

Yes, but how many times have you heard the comment:
“But it worked on my machine”

Yeah, most applications are greater than the sum of their code.

In my day dammit, we used batch files and we liked it! Ok, we didn’t *like* it, but we realized that a separate build server was an important part of our development cycle. If I had a twinkie for every dependancy bug I’ve had to hunt down over my career, I’d be a fat, fat man. I mean like Jerry Springer/Maury Povich episode fat. Fatter than fat, my fat would have fat.

I’m just saying, DLL’s are nice and all but damn…. I hate versioning.
