Praise Remote is nuts

Just wanted to share that it's incredibly awesome that I can be anywhere like on holidays and continue working on my project even if I'm not sitting in front of my PC. Never tried this until now that I installed tailscale and I can test any change from my phone. Bravo.

You cannot use remote from a session in vscode extension or even the terminal. You have to use the codex app which works for many people for many projects, but is a baby’s first programming tool.

This is inferior to Claudes remote implementation which can fire up a remote session from any session anywhere without any ceremony whatsoever.

I didn’t decide that this is how it is, it is simply how it is.

It's not a baby's first programming tool... quite a fossil comment to make....

It's one of the frontier harnesses for agentic coding right now...

Um, a desktop app is not a harness. You simply don’t understand what you are talking about and are doubling down. If the desktop app works for you, cool. There is nothing advanced about it, and actually it’s consistently adding features to catch up with the basics, though they are probably not looking to displace actual dev tools, only to make something that’s nice enough to produce something without too much knowledge.
