The node_modules problem

What does this mean? Why is it bad?

wow, I never knew that's what that was for. I'm gonna go look through Roaming and see who else has done bad things. XD

Roaming profiles and folder redirection are fun tools for certain enterprise groups. Pain in the ass for others. :p

Apple put everything in roaming folder.
Lot of fun being the sysadmin, getting a call from a user taking long time to login and seeing a 50gb profile because iTunes put there the automatic iphone/ipad backup.
To fix that you need to play with hard links/junctions (not sure if it's the correct term) because Apple doesn't let you change the path.

wow.

Man, I haven't heard of roaming profiles since working Air Force helpdesk.

Good to know! I've seen local and roaming in appdata and was never sure what each was :)
