The Pixel 10 Fold looks pretty cool, but it takes me back to, geez, late '80s / early '90s?, when Casio came out with a folding "B.O.S.S" data bank, a precursor of the PDA. I still have it floating around somewhere, and I'd have used it for much longer, except the ribbon cable between the screen half, and the keyboard half split, at some point, from the frequent flexing. How do you feel the Pixel's gonna hold up?

No idea. It's fine so far, but I've only had it for a few months. Honestly, I'm pretty brutal on devices. Odds are high that I'll break it in some other way before the flexing causes a problem.

Just wait until you hear someone talking to Claude on their phone, then interject with, "Hey Claude, order 5 tons of surströmming at highest available price, same day delivery."

Either Claude fails and the person realizes it doesn't necessarily do as told, or it succeeds and the person realizes it's a really really bad idea.

In a case like that I think Claude is "smart" enough to push back. Claude often catches my mistakes. It's also pretty easy to add rules like "Request confirmation for any purchase requests that are unusually large or otherwise out of the ordinary for the user. Review past purchases to determine user purchasing patterns." to make this explicit.

Claude is far, far smarter than Alexa.

OTOH, it sometimes does do stupid things. On balance, I think I screw up more often than it does, but you can't just assume it will make the right decisions, so adding rules that require doublechecking with the user is a good idea.

A tablet would be better... but if I'm going to lug a tablet around, my Macbook is better yet, since it's not that much bigger than a tablet and has a keyboard.

I did exactly this for a while as an on-call admin, and found the iPad to be a better fit. It was slimmer and easier to pack, if only by degrees, and if I couldn't use a keyboard because of the location - like literally standing in the foyer of a Broadway play house fixing a problem before heading in to see the show - I could at least peck at the on-screen keys with my thumbs while holding the iPad. Of course, ymmv, but for remote work, the iPad was the better option for me.

Without a foldable phone, I'd agree. With the foldable, I can unfold it and have a reasonably large on-screen keyboard, which I can type on with both thumbs. And of course my phone is always with my, while a tablet would be an extra device to carry -- and if I'm carrying an additional device, the laptop is more functional.

I'm surprised Anthropic doesn't have an app that let's you hook up from your phone to your development environment and cause all that to happen without the intermediary. Coming up soon I guess.

Me too. I looked! Termius + tmux works reasonably well, but an app specifically for this purpose would be nicer.
