It's also proprietary software running on someone else's machine. All other arguments for or against aside, I am surprised that so many people are okay with this. Not in a one-time use sense, necessarily, but to have long-term plans that this is what programming will be from here on out.
Another issue with it is IP protection. It reminded me stories where the moment physical manufacturing was outsourced to China, exact clones appeared shortly after.
Imagine investing tons of efforts and money into a startup, just to get a clone a week after launch, or worse - before your launch.
Right, we the workers are giving away control over the future of general purpose computation to the power elite, unless we reject the institutionalization of remote access proprietary tooling like this
