Depends on where and when you are. Some hyped up dude is fixated on the next fix and lacks the executive function to discriminate. The more professional thieves are more discriminating.

I agree that it’s just a matter of when it’s stolen, not if it’s going to be stolen.

The article suggests the laptop is about $300, and he uses it about 1hr/day.

If the laptop is stolen less than once a year he spends less than $1/hr for coding on the go, which I would consider a fair deal.
