Could someone explain to me what the general workflow is now that people are converging to? I haven't really been catching up with the AI ecosystem but I was looking into agent sandboxes and VM's recently and there's a ton of these startups and tools now. Is giving the agent a temporary scratchbox really that valuable?
I've been still just like, making VM's with proxmox, then putting my agent in the machine and letting it run free (with my dotfiles setup script making dev env pretty much free, though I could also just make a VM snapshot). What's wrong with that? Is that not the scalable solution for enterprise rn?
I have no idea, I just live in my terminal at this point, on linux. Don't use Visual Studio or Jetbrains products anymore at all. I use visual studio code to view the occasional diff and run sql queries. Other than that, zero desktop apps, just terminal & cli tooling. Its great! I have about 20 terminals open at any given time though. I have no idea how some of my colleagues stay productive as they are messing around with all these workflow tools, desktop apps etc.
It's kinda true. I use the terminal approach too, but I wouldn't trust every type of user with this long of a leash. There's a place for instituting systems that share context, manage authentication, and is permissions-aware.
