> Hackathon Developer Gets Development Environment Working With Two Whole Hours To Go

This one just hits home with anytime I try to program on a different computer.

"Ok, I have 5 hours to program, let's do this" ... 4 hours later ... "Ok, all my sublime plugins and themes are installed, let's start coding!"

I don't know if it is good or bad that I don't have an environment I rely on that much

ha yeah that was definitely an exaggeration. I don't think many people need a complex environment, it's more about personal preference. If I can do a one-time setup that saves me time on all of my future projects, rather than take longer to complete each project, that overhead is well worth it to me.

I made a dumb thing a while ago you can play with to try and differentiate between them and real HN quotes: http://hack.pizzey.me/

It's usually pretty easy due to the predictable format of HN Onion, but when you get one that doesn't follow that form it can be amusingly difficult.
