Rant: I tried the 'work from a beach' thing in Bali for a week

Everyone makes it look easy, but the glare on my screen was so bad I could barely see my code. I learned that a $300 pair of anti-glare glasses didn't fix the core problem of sand and humidity. Has anyone actually found a good outdoor setup that works for real work?

You spent $300 on glasses for a beach setup? That's wild.

That $300 was actually my breaking point too, but then I spent a day squinting at my screen under a cheap umbrella and suddenly it made sense. @the_keith I feel your pain on the squirrel attack, that's some bad luck right there.

Oh man, I feel this. I tried working from my own backyard and spent forty bucks on a sunshade, only to have a squirrel drop an acorn on my keyboard. The dream setup is harder than it looks.
