The hardest thing AI is replacing is not code, it is your identity. It took me weeks to write this essay, because I think that transition is at the root of what we all have to master over the coming years.
I also share my own experience and what it costs to defend your identity, and what opens up when you stop defending.
Most identity transitions used to take decades. AI is compressing that timeline into months. It is removing the parts of the job that were never really about you. And the question of who you are without them shows up fast.

CEO at Ona (formerly Gitpod) here. Every ephemeral environment Ona creates can directly connect to your Desktop IDE for easy handoff. Our team goes from prompt -> iterating in conversation -> VS Code Web -> VS Code Desktop/Cursor depending on task complexity and quality of the agent output. We call this progressive engagement and have written about it here https://ona.com/docs/ona/best-practices#progressive-engageme...

Johannes from Gitpod here. I've answered this in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28682477 (copied below)
Essentially, we run nightly builds at OpenVSCode Server making it as upstream to VS Code as possible. In contrast to other forks the whole scope of the project is to add a minimal set of changes (specifics about what we added https://github.com/gitpod-io/openvscode-server/blob/main/doc...)
The architecture we use powers both Gitpod and GitHub Codespaces. Several of the devs and organisations that have asked for our implementation & now have adopted OpenVSCode Server referenced the following issue at Code-Server (https://github.com/cdr/code-server/issues/3835).

github.dev is solely the VSCode frontend/editor without access to any compute. OpenVSCode Server allows you to run VS Code on a remote machine and access it with a thin client through the browser. Unlike github.dev you get full access to the underlying OS and can run tests, compilation, install dependencies etc.

Best way is to signup at https://www.gitpod.io/#get-started and allow changelog emails https://gitpod.io/notifications.
We are working actively with the team at Jetbrains to offer a great DevX integrating with their remote development implementation(https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-226455).
Leo di Donato, who helped create Falco, the cloud native runtime security, wrote a technical deep dive into how Claude Code bypassed it's own denylist and sandbox. And introduces Veto, a kernel-level enforcement engine built into the Ona platform.
