Even with Codespace your company will still have to buy you a laptop, to run corporate VPN, security/virus software, background screen recording, and zoom/video calls. All of this will still need powerful reliable business grade laptop.
The cost difference between laptop meant for remote development vs regular dev laptop is less than $1k. ($300 for CPU upgrade, $200 for RAM, $200 for SSD upgrade)?
- ghthor 5y ago:sigh: this is to close to home. Nothing like malfunctioning virus software + background screen recording to eat all your local machine ram and cpu cycles.
- cameronbrown 5y agoI think a lot of these things are less important by the day though. Are VPNs or advanced security software even necessary if everything is in Notion/Google Docs and something like Codespaces is being used?
- 015a 5y agoEnd-device security is always important; there would be nothing to stop the compromise and lift of, for example, cookies stored in the browser, or a keylogger to grab passwords.
