Very soon you won't use barely any desktop software nor will your coding depend on your hardware as much as now. Many companies are working on that and the time seems much better than a few years back. I am curious to see how some startups in this space will reshape the world.

They've been saying this for 20 years :). But seriously I don't agree... A lot of the work I do must be run locally for security reasons.
