I'm really surprised (and discouraged) to see how many people here are so enthusiastic about this. There is so much room for misuse. You're increasing your dependency on an external corporation, giving them more control over your development environment, giving up much of your autonomy, and somehow this is a good thing?
Development environments being overly complex to setup, long compile times, those are symptoms of software bloat and bad design, but instead of addressing these fundamental problems, people want compilation to happen externally on a 32-core machine so they can sweep those problems under the rug. Okay, let's see how that turns out.
