I feel your pain! Today I'm working in a remote office on my laptop. My issues:
0: I keep hitting the touchpad with palms/thumbs and moving the cursor/selection!
1: I have to remember to use the Fn key if I want to use a function key!
2: Single monitor (you really miss extra monitors when you don't have them)
3: Keyboard is OK, but not great.
Other than that, this 8 y/o HP actually performs better than my current desktop system...I may be doing something about that soon.
I do realize there is a fix for #1, I just can't ever remember to do it!

Should be possible to switch it in the BIOS
Or..
try "Shift+FN" (it should remain even after rebooting)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

I see a new advertisement here on this site from a company named Auth0.
I don't think that they're tag line actually gets across what they mean. OTOH, I think it sends exactly the wrong message.
The tag line is "What would you do with 33% less development time?"
To me, that means I'd be 33% less productive if I'm missing all that time to do my work.
Does it strike anyone else the same way?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I guess I would "Start Building", at least that is what the click bait button says to do.

That is ambiguous wording. Does it mean you have 20 hours instead of 30 hours or does it mean you get everything done in 33% less time? The latter would be a good thing. The former - not so much.
