I find myself remoting into my home server to do dev-work despite (other than the SSD vs HDD) my server being a fraction of the specs of the workstations at the office.
If I have to wait more than a few minutes for my code to compile and start I'm likely to forget what I was doing in the first place.

Yep, it happens to me a lot. I have to compile over 50 projects. My work PC is powerful, except the absence of SSD, which just makes everything too slow.
I can't use my home PC (which has an SSD), because of infrastructural restrictions.

Infrastructural or security?
Because there's always a way to get around security...

Yes, security, which is part of infrastructure, I'd say. I could access my domain through the VPN client I have on the work laptop, but that's not allowed.

As title, I think that I want my processes works first. Speed? Wait when it becomes more stable.

I mean, honestly, there is nothing new in this list.
So I voted "Other" without being able to tell you what "other" might be.

I bet most programmers have not read the manual for Visual Studio, and they expect their users to read the manual. Haha

There's a manual for Visual Studio?

I'm sure we're all guilty of not reading manuals. I have customers that force me to write a manual as part of the project deliverables, then phone me when they need help using the product

An they probably phone you before they look at the manual you have required you to write. I would suggest that if you have a number of users, send them out a questionnaire on their use of the manual...if they have even used them. You may be able to use the results to save yourself the effort. I did that when I was at AT&T. Nobody used the documentation, so management stopped having it as a deliverable.

It's not the tech, it's the management. And with good management, having good tech is usually not an issue.

Sane managers?
You might as well ask for $5 trillion in unmarked bills, a 30 year-old Diana Rigg and a Batcopter.

Quite possibly - I've never seen GoT (I am that person).
In my mind she will always be the divine Mrs. Peel from The Avengers (the classic UK TV series rather than the Marvel thing). She was in a Bond movie, too - can't remember the name of it.

I would also include sane coworkers.
I have a couple who are a new bricks short of a load upstairs.

Sane management would get rid of them... Same situation here.
