Be care.. on HN "there's really nothing I could" sounds a bit defeatist.. :P Some ideas.. One could use this as an opportunity to learn about how to still do work without using your predominate computer. Assuming if you lost your computer it would be a PITA to reset it? Not a good position to be in. But it's a solvable problem. Can your project be dockerized? Before you leave can can you have a AWS instance primed for you to hit it rather than localhost. Don't know about docker.. great opportunity. Do you have crazy configs/environ-files stored on your computer? Stick them in github with scripts that set them up from a clean machine. Is this all a pain? yeah of course.. but I'll bet you that you'll gain a whole bunch of new skills. The general thoughts here (AFAIK) is to bring a clean burner phone and a clean machine (such as chromeos with maybe a clean ubuntu crouton on it). Good luck... I'll look forward to your how-to post.. I'll sure there will be many HN'ers that will too. :)
