So I see three issues mentioned that have nothing to do with NuGet:
1. Version conflicts for common dependencies between libraries
2. Auto-updates
3. Package configurations which say a new version is compatible with your project
NuGet doesn’t magically solve #1 for you, though it *can* update your references for the simple case, if you let it. Which highlights that #2 is not normally the default. Finally, #3 is the fault of the packager, not the deliverer. It’s easy to configure things wrong, and for the misconfiguration to go unnoticed if it’s new or exotic enough.
What NuGet does help you solve is keeping your source control download small, especially if the bulk of your code is libraries, unless someone unknowingly checks in the “packages” folder.

How are you people in Microsoft ecosystem, and not using NuGet pacakges? Is it some kind of April Fools joke? It's been probably one of the biggest productivity improvements in the last decade. We ended up migrating all our internal libraries to NuGet as well, and integrated the process into our CI pipeline. Learn how to use the tool, before complaining about it.

Indeed, I got the feeing we’re being trolled, or punked, at least.

Microsoft distributes its libraries via NuGet in Visual Studio. I could not work without it. And versioning problems? Have you ever tried to compile an open source project with loads of dependencies?

If this is a Leslie, so be it. But for those not initiated, here's a horror video for you, made even more horrifying by the god-awful laugh track. (And don't ask me where the term 'god-awful' comes from - I don't know - yet.)

Looks like they really love Power Point. I haven't used PP in years.

Didn't make it past the first minute, ugh!

That was hilarious
Could've done without the laugh track though.

You haven't lived until you've navigated a 100+ sheet Excel file, where each sheet is a page of a specification and each sheet may generate multiple printed pages of hard copy.

I'm sure even the subject line of your post violates KSS and maybe even violates KS, herself.

I saw half that remark coming but was un-curtain of the outcome. I wand-er if this can chain-ge the followups?

Not sure when it started but nowadays VS2019 expands the Refernces node of random projects during compilation... Very annoying!!!

The more I have to use Visual Studio the more I like VS Code.

VS 2010 is the last usable version.

I've been quite displeased with VS since 2008. Now I didn't try 2010 but have an install 2015 I use every year or so. There just seems to be an ever-increasing amount of "Stuff" that is peripheral to the code. Something unsavory about the evolution of VS.

Yup, adding features for the sake of adding features, slowing it down in an effort to be more "helpful".
I have to use VS (2013 and 2015) for a few things at work, it's a necessity for SSIS, but I dread having to use it for "real code".

Hah, amateurs! VS 2005 is the VS of my choice
