what if prison ends up becoming the most distraction-free dev environment. no meetings, no slack pings, no linkedin recruiters, just you, a terminal, and 10 years of uninterrupted focus. kinda terrifying how productive that sounds

Don’t give our overlords any ideas. Open plan offices are bad enough.
No pings, just people who may decide to shiv or rape you
Nobody gets shivved or raped in the kind of low-security prisons where non-violent criminals go.
It’s more rare sure, but it still happens. Either way my point was that romanticizing prison is a terrible take
If you're not dating anyway and don't own your house outright prison with computer access honestly doesn't sound bad at all.
No need to worry about rent, no need to worry about healthcare, no need deal with all this social crap.
Not rent, just crippling debt: https://apnews.com/article/crime-prisons-lawsuits-connecticu...
that is horrifying. i really wish i hadn't read that. we live in a cruel world.
this is something you can freely achieve for yourself without prison -- no need to speak this evil into existence haha.
When I had a <3 year old demanding child I often thought about how relaxing prison would be, with relatively normal set sleeping, work patterns, and in some prisons guaranteed personal space at night with at worst an adult roomate.
Just the thought of maybe being able to peacefully read a book for 30 minutes, at times I almost wished to be imprisoned...
So two more years to go you say…
Terrifying that slinging code for years on end is what one aspires to as a free individual pondering asceticism.
Almost sounds like you haven’t watched season 3 episode 9 of a little documentary called The Office.
You can have that now on the outside if that’s what you want. Start with one room in your house. Remove everything but a dedicated cheap computer and a table and a bed and a bottle of water. Strictly limit the apps you can use or the sites you can access.
Something like prison probably is the most productive environment one could be in. It almost completely eliminates the need for self discipline because it's all enforced.
What are disadvantages of living in prison?
You never go on vacation. Your family gets sick. Your friends need your help. You want to travel. You want to go to funerals for people who aren't in your direct family. You want to explore hobbies.
Idk, a few?
You're essentially designated a human of lesser value, which means nobody really cares about you. If guards harm or sexually assault you, nobody cares. If other prisoners harm or sexually assault you, nobody cares. If you get sick, nobody cares. You will not receive good care in any sense of the word. If you have mental health issues, may God have mercy on your soul.
Disregarding the lack of anywhere to go, and assuming no enemies within the prison, I see no disadvantages.
How's the food in prisons?
