It's great news for developers. Extra spend on a development/test env so dev have no prod access, prod has no ssh access; and SREs get two laptops, with the second one being a Chromebook that only pulls credentials when it's absolutely necessary.

Yes, having a good development env with synthetic data, and an inaccessible, secure prod env just got justification. I never considered the secondary SRE laptop but I think it might be a good idea.
