Yeah I just remote access my agent via cloud relay. There is no need in my experience for the laptop to have any oomph at all.

And once Anthropic has an outage you gonna be what...twiddling your thumbs?
This is how you justify dragging around some 2.5kg diving board of a laptop all the time?
Any machine thick or thin will do. Just write code so it uses resources properly and maybe, just maybe write it by hand unless you unhooked your brain and leave it to a hallucinating ma ch one that needs a “harness” to remotely do what you want.
And I’d rather “lug around a 2.5kg diving board” than using a fuckton of water and power in some remote data center thank you.
