  1. can also sometimes happen when your workplaces corporate antivirus you can't uninstall, pause, or change any settings on decides to scan your project files while a build is in progress 🤦🤦🤦

    Oh, you get the benefit of explicit scanning?

    We get the beauty of every file that's modified being scanned before the write "completes". It's an absolute joy starting a build and watching ~80% of the available compute be consumed by antivirus software.

    Or, you know, normal filesystem caching as part of your tool's workflow.

    Or dependency installing and unpacking....

    Or anything actually that touches a lot of files.

    Yeah was experiencing that for awhile, a couple of workarounds:

    • run the IDE inside a VM
    • Use windows "dev drive" and got the admins to exclude it from active scanning, but it seems like that setting has been lost recently 😕
