Except now you require 2 machines and internet access instead of just one machine. You could offload your VMs before too. Keeping them all local and working off

Except now you require 2 machines and internet access instead of just one machine. You could offload your VMs before too. Keeping them all local and working offline are still important capabilities.
- kube-system 5y agoThat depends on your use case, of course. I'm not going to be working offline at a coffee shop anyway.
- apatheticonion 5y agoThose cases are few and far between for me - usually limited to catching flights and my laptop can be used locally as a back up. You can also dockerize your workloads and use an environment variable to use your ssh remote as the docker machine. Catching a train home from the office and using a lightweight, cool to the touch, thin laptop that is offloading commands via 4g to my desktop PC with 24 cores such that I can't tell that workloads are not running locally is such a fantastic development experience. Sure I need to be always online on 1 extra device, but the second connection can be significantly lower bandwidth while the server will access things over a hardwired 100 megabit connection.
