Coding on a VM

I have made the official shift to coding only within a Virtual Machine.
I actually uninstalled Visual Studio from my base laptop and only have access to it
through a VM.

The straw that broke the camel’s back on this one was a Visual Studio
add-in that corrupted my Visual Studio install. Reinstalling Visual Studio is about
a 1.5 hour commitment. So now I can roll back to my archived “gold” VM if this ever
happened again.
