At my first job out of college it took 30 minutes to recompile and launch the server. Now the kids complain about 10 seconds. It's just impossible for me to take their complaints seriously. 10 seconds isn't even enough time for a mental context-switch, its just slightly more time than "instant". Back in the day, something like this wasn't an exaggeration: https://xkcd.com/303/

I can remember instant reloads of application servers on a job 10+ years ago grandpa. This isn't new.
