My experience is that, if you're in a place where you want to work on a laptop, that place will probably have wifi. Sure, in the park, on the street, your chances are lower -- but that's where you'd be pulling out your phone or tablet instead of your laptop.

Most places where there's WiFi, speed is terrible. I always end up tethering to my phone. Heck, LTE ends up being faster than my home connection. (Obviously used judiciously given the small dataplans you can get)

You take laptops to where wi-fi is. I'd rather go to Balboa Park or the Black Mountain Preserve.

Are you coding from these places?

Well, coding is a hobby for me, (GP physician by trade), so yes, I catch where catch can. At the park while my kids play is a common use case.
