Ok, I have had my coffee, so you can all come out now!

Now I'm going to have to start swearing in Mexican Spanish as well just to fully cover this foolery.
First my $200 eval board arrives missing pieces. I'm pretty sure it was NXP and not Mouser's doing, because google turned up at least one other person with the issue, and they ordered straight from NXP. Worse, there was a bad or missing component on the board (i can't see it) that prevents the demo from running. I have a meeting coming up for which I need to have run some benchmarks on this chip and so I can't return the board yet - I don't have time to get a replacement. Luckily mouser is giving me 90 days to return it, but I think I'll just take the credit on my account instead of getting a new board.
Then, heaven help me the MCUXspresso IDE just hangs installing the SDK. I posted on /r/embedded about it. The solution i was given was "When I ran into that I closed it waited a day, ran it again and it worked". I waited a day. Ran it again. It worked. *headdesk*. Internet something something. *grumble*  
In the meantime I find another way to do it using VS Code, which I prefer, but I run their standalone installer, and the damned thing reboots me system with no warning. For a bit I thought it was malware and I had been faked out, but no, just a very ill behaved installer, with inadequate documentation (for NXP users out there, this isn't the main installer, but a standalone one they give you for getting this running w/ VS Code instead of MCUxpresso IDE)
Then there's flashing. There are several different boot loaders, and you have to figure out which one works with your hardware configuration, and sometimes you can choose from more than one, but you have to flash a new boot loader to make the new one work, and different ones have different capabilities. Confusing! Fortunately, although I found this out after much hair pulling, the VS Code extension will detect and choose the appropriate one for your equipment, and preflashed bootloader.
Finally, I get a project going. I need to figure out how to get the SPI busses working with DMA, and thank god for the examples, because google turns up almost nothing. It's amazing anyone can find their way around NXP's APIs because they aren't well documented that I can find. They do a good job of documenting the hardware and registers, but anything higher level than that, like their wrappers, aside from the examples (which fortunately, are pretty extensive) I don't see much.
But now they've disabled 5 of the 6 SPI buses in code and I can't figure out how to turn them on. Modifying the appropriate header's #defines doesn't seem to actually change anything even though it should, and I don't want to try to figure out why, because that involves spelunking through a very complicated build system.
I'm nervous about using this hardware. It's a fight. Nothing like STM32, which was a fight, but I always knew it was a winnable fight. This one seems a bit beyond me. I'm not good at datasheets and fiddling with hardware reference manuals and the friggin ARM TRMs and such. They read like a phone book and my eyes glaze over quickly.
I don't know how anyone develops with these, but I imagine they've probably sat through training of some sort. I don't know how anyone can get there from here without it.

This always happens, when you start with a new hardware. After 10 years it goes better.

If Amazon didn't want people to hit Refresh every 45 seconds on their parcel tracking page, they shouldn't have added a map showing the truck's location when it's a few mere miles away from your door.
|
|
|
|
|
And to make it performant, they will use the help of a cache... which will be invalid every 1 second and therefore you need to press ctrl&shift&F5 while sending an sms to the pope

I live in a fourth floor apartment and I can watch out my window as the truck goes from building to building while I'm hitting refresh.
The truck can be right out front and the system still says that it's several stops away.

I queried this with one of the drivers some while ago. He said it was to protect the driver from potential hijacks. If the criminals go to the place where the truck "appears" to be, then they will be disappointed.

I can state with certainty that often I can see the that truck is exactly where the system says it is.

Different strokes for different folks.

Maybe you live in a bad neighborhood. 
More likely they lie to the drivers.

As far as I'm concerned, a "stop" could very well constitute a delivery (to others in the same apartment building)...not necessary a "truck stop".

My experience is that the system updates the driver location every time they scan a package as being delivered. So the location on the map is where the driver last completed a delivery, but the truck is actually moving to or at the next delivery location. It may delay it by some amount or report a couple stops back to protect the driver.
I live about 6 miles outside a small town. By tracking my packages I have learned the delivery route usually taken. When I see the truck at one spot on the map I can pretty much predict the next neighborhood it will move into. So much for driver protection. If I get the notification that my delivery is getting close, I can usually figure it means that it will be delivered within the next 90-120 minutes.

Yes, it can!
Turns out the customer purchased Azure Stack HCI, a substitute for VMWare (which it is replacing).
Yes, our software is ready to run in VMs, just as it was before
I'll have to explain tomorrow how their choice to switch from VMWare to Azure Stack HCI matters nothing at all to me.
If only they went for Azure Stack Hub, which gives you the Azure portal and PaaS solutions that you know from the cloud variant.
I think this image sums it up nicely: Azure vs. Azure Stack[^]
