Here’s the NUC numbers, which as expected take longer as it doesn’t have insane CPU performance. So +8s to avoid locking up the builder is more than fine.
Took 18.049s to compile 166 shaders with 0 errors

Because MSFT runs IP into the ground. It’s not just bad studio management. They only look good when compared to Disney.
Buy company for IP
Layoff teams (not always justified)
Have new, cheaper team make product for IP
People quit buying IP as it’s outdated or out of step with IP
Repeat
More mass layoffs and IP graveyard grows

@thendrix How is the One doing better?

Tell your builder doesn’t build the tool before using it without saying you did.

Finished a stage one job interview. No technical person was present for the first interview, which was unexpected, both to me and the executive who interviewed me, who had expected the tech guy to show up. 😬

Nice to see you got it working!
When I started developing #TinyWeatherForecastGermany , I never thought that #wearables support would get that important 😉
