1.) Tropical Beach
2.) Alpine Forest
3.) Wet Grassland
4.) Swamp
5.) Desert
6.) Other (please specify)

The best programmers are Slavs (excluding Russians), so I assume moderate Baltic climate.

What kind of programming? since i don't see how remote environment have WiFi and
given most programmers don't pay for expensive satellite internet(starlink might be cheaper, but its router is not something luggable), so its presumed a form of offline programming.
1.Does the device have a solar cell or is fed from solar power?
if yes, any environment with abudant sun will allow to extend battery life.
if not,offline programming will require some charging device(hand crank?) and will be extremely limited. Battery life is the key metric here and all possible features have to extend it: dark mode,
low-resource software, low-res graphics,etc.
2.Programming languages: if you don't have access to stack overflow and web search, i'd suggest using
simple languages with built-in help like LISP and BASIC.
3.Type of environment: i assume you trying to find a type of place which
doesn't have distractions and doesn't reduce comfort for programming.
A desert seems like a great environment, with plenty of solar power, so
something like an oasis in a desert would be such environment.
However if you're looking for inspiration and challenge, probably mountains with
some huts/wooden tables to put a laptop on.
I see this question as 'in which environment can i isolate myself from the world?',
and the idea is not removing the world's influence but reducing annoyances.
Moving to some remote log cabin to code a new TempleOS isn't going to
matter if you're not connected to the internet and the world at large.

Alpine Forest.

High temparature and humidity makes work impossible. Hence why 3rd worlders have AC on 24/7.

Dying of hypothermia in some alpine forest(which is cold AND humid) doesn't sound like
a good work environment. You'll have to get artificial heating to survive, a closed space, like a hut or house to avoid frost and wild animals. Basically building a mini-civilization to survive.

Open source civilization

>>5 Oh come on without civilization programming isn't possible so that is implied. And the Alpine Forest is humid? Not really. Also humidity + cold isn't bad but humidity + heat exhausts and it also implies sprawling nature which implies abundant resources which implies that there's no motivation to work.

neural networks that compose code don't seem to have a civilization.

I-I thought le roossian h4xx0rs were the best? Why do you think other slaves are better?

more like TedOS

You've never been to a hot country. You don't even have to leave you're shitholes, just go to Texas.

Don't change these.
