It's simpler from a certain point of view, namely one where you don't want to have to maintain the VM.

It's more complicated because you need to know more random tech that I bet you don't want to learn. Which is fine, it's really not necessary.

By the way, you should learn git sometime. Or there's a couple other VCSes that are somewhat known, but git is both good and has good networking effects (everyone uses it).

I prefer Mercurial, and as a hobbyist I can afford to stay with it. I know Git has GitHub and all the connectivity of that, but I just truly dislike Git.

Ah, I didn't see that you use mercurial instead of git when I made my last comment.

I'd love to be able to make red-line decisions like this regardless, no matter what. For example, I absolutely hate MacOS and would love to say "hard no" to any job offer if they insist that I use MacOS, regardless of job fit or TC. But ultimately, I back down once they show me the money, and find myself using it anyway.

That works, as long as you know one of them.
