- maternity leave - paternity leave - overtime - not having to answer a call or email outside of work hours - workman’s comp / short/long-term disability for issues with my back or wrists or eyes or… - about 100 more things

The outsized pay for software engineers in the US takes into account a lot of this stuff. Would you trade those 100 things for, say, a salary of $75k a year for a senior software engineer, like they have in Europe?

Meh. The rest of the world also doesn't have big salaries for software devs. The US is the outlier.

It's not just the labor regulations holding Europe back, it's the lack of funding due to not having a unified European digital market.

Netflix Europe needs to have 20+ licensing deals. Selling across Europe at a large scale requires interactions with 20+ legal teams. Language and cultural barriers kill a lot of things.

How do US giants thrive in Europe, then?

Because they come in directly giant-sized based on growth in the US. They either ignore European legal compliance until sued or pay peanuts for them to handle all the legal aspects.

So do you believe that the gains from this technology will be broadly distributed? Or will capital capture the majority of those gains?

what technologies has "capital" captured the majority of gains from?

Small newspapers full of classified ads used to be available locally around the world, creating local employment. Google and Meta ravaged that and sucked the money out to a handful of shareholders and tens of thousands of highly paid tech workers. That's just one market.

Linode will provide a configured Linux box for $5/mo that works well with Claude Code and Termius. I had to jump through a surprising amount of hoops with Claude Code, Tmux and Termius to issue a shift+tab before Claude Code gained the ability to invoke plan mode conversationally

Will we still use "batch jobs" agents in 2027? Checking a Java program and downloading a 10mb program used to be slow things which now happen faster than the blink of an eye.

Using Claude code Pro with a maxed subscription and ChatGPT Codex with the business subscription. The code is written in Dart and never wrote a line of DART in my life, I'm a veteran expert around Java, C++. The reason for choosing DART is simply because it is way readier for multi-platform contexts than Java/C++. The same code base now runs on Linux, Android, iOS, OSX, Windows and Web (as static HTML). Plus the comp…

Would you describe this product as a whole application suite (blogging, calendar, commerce) plus its own backend infrastructure that is capable of serving these apps to the public internet and functioning offline via ad-hoc wireless peer-to-peer, with a cryptographic layer providing identity, security and censorship resistance, and that runs on phone, laptop or raspberry pi? Quite ambitious. Is this an LLM hallucinat…

> Is this an LLM hallucinating? taking a break from coding? or leaking your personal desktop session?

Ha! In any case, I'm happy to see I'm not the only one compulsively "ls-ing" all over the place in every terminal I open :)

>Development fits into the gaps of the day instead of requiring dedicated desk time.

I find myself planning and jotting down things into a notebook while juggling adult/parent responsibilities. On little longer gaps I research. Then when the occasional longer gap happens I'm ready to start cracking on my desktop. I've been only dabbling with AI but have found that writing prompts by hand in the notebook and using the desk time to execute them works well. This also keeps me in the free tier.

Been using Termux and iSH on my phones for years. You can ssh to your server or just directly code for the phone itself.

I also used Web based coding environment like Glitch (R.I.P.) for years.

You can do that with your virtual keyboard, voice or a even a physical keyboard via BT, e.g. Corne-ish Zen.

That's how I travel.

That's really nothing AI specific or novel. It's cool though.

FWIW I even coined a related term https://fabien.benetou.fr/Languages/OwnConcepts#ResponsivePr... "extending responsive design to be able to program on the device, any device from eink to mobile phone to device, one is currently using not just to "consume" content, e.g read a Website that is then properly formatted for it, but rather program back that very device"

That being said, if you do want to go that route check out CloudInit as it will help you (or whatever tool you rely on) to spawn new instance on your favorite cloud provider to boot specific instances and e.g. setup Docker/Podman then services, etc with no interaction. Also ntfy can help you manage notifications across devices on your own infrastructure, no 3rd parties.

Also on the topic of gaps... liminal space IS precious. It doesn't require coding per se though. You can problem solve, jolt down a solution THEN only implement it as code later on. What matters IMHO is that the potential solution is not lost, wherever you might be. For that... I have shower crayons. Point is, CAPTURE ideas, don't necessarily implement on the spot but of course if you want to, it's good to be able to.

Pandora's box is open; we're moving towards a world where white collar workers will be working 24/7 and they'll be expected to do so. It won't matter if I'm washing the dishes, walking the dog, driving to the supermarket, picking up my kids from school. I'll always be switched on, on my phone, continuously talking to an LLM, delivering questionable features and building meaningless products, destroying in the process…

I’m a remote work from home employee who never ever works overtime. I do use Claude code for my personal projects and ping at them from coffee shops and micro moments during my free time. It’s possible to engineer your own life boundaries and not be a victim of every negative trend in existence.

Yeah absolutely. It’s hardly things like Claude Code that are the problem, Slack (or other forms of communication) are much easier to slip into personal time and have been a trend since Blackberries were invented.
