What Could Be Better?

It's interesting that it is these principles that stay the same. Even when build packs came along, they had like the different things that would run. And even when you were to implement your own build pack, you would basically fill the template with whatever you needed for your build pack. It still scripts everywhere. I remember doing that a couple of times and thinking, wow, this is really simple. Many things have changed. But the basics have mostly stayed the same. So in that world, I'm going to ask you what could be better? We all know. What could have been better in that world apart from VMs? so we made a lot of mistakes by building that platform.
