@matigo you'd list those tools to a blog post one day, right?
@jws yeah if these things came packaged with everything they needed to run, that would be nice.
@matigo I understand, and I've been bitten recently when node versions were playing havoc with my system (I think they still are).
But I guess I've never owned a system powerful enough to do VMs :P

@matigo wow… That's a big system you're managing! Indeed, you probably need constant reminders or a big board which shows all your used and unused indices, so you can track the db's correct usage…
@jws a more pertinent question is that if the only thing needed is vc140blahblah.dll, why didn't a version from 9 or 11 suffice? Why does Windows environ have to be so upending that PHP7 and PHP 5…
You know what? It's done. The work is over. Fk it.
@jws Oh, and Xcode is a straightforward download and so are the additional tools. I had to install 3 versions of VC++ before I got the right one. What's the diff between VC++ 9, 11, and 14? Gawd knows!
