This is the difference between working on the VS-C++ codebase that I inherited most of and have evolved somewhat, and working on my (entirely original) related Eclipse-Java codebase:
When I go "fuck I need to make a major change and it will take hours" with the C++ code, it takes hours.
When I go "fuck I need to make a major change and it will take hours" with the Java code, it takes about five minutes and I spend hours bumming around online instead of moving on to the next task on my to do list.
