Note that I didn't necessarily refer to CI servers when talking about remote machines. Sometimes it's just a better specced workstation in the office, sometimes it's my own headless machine learning rig at home. Sure different engineers and different fields have different workflows but I believe it's still easier to build a good workstation from components than finding a laptop that excels in both portability and specs.

Interesting approach. I have some coleagues that actually remote desktops to their powerful desktop computer. I never did that because I fear all the tiny issues I have to deal with, but they tell me it works quite well. Also just offloading the heavy lifting through ssh or other types of build servers seems super interesting (I think some build systems have built in support for a common server, not sure if it is true, but it could be very helpful if it works well)
