github gave me a BEAST for coding 🤯 NO MORE VS Code

It just clicked for me - GitHub lets us ditch our computer and go back to the days of our programming ancestors, but with much, MUCH faster super computers.

Its strange to see Microsoft purchase something (Github) and actually do something with it instead of shelving and neglecting it for a decade

[@SIRBOB102]

isn't this just Microsoft copying gitpod

[@vivarantx]

i don't see the need for this to be honest and if you are using kubernetes you cannot attach to port forwarded ports to debug in real time

Rule no1 of VS Code user - NEVER touch F5. Use cli and write a bunch of scripts to automate your personal common tasks. You will be at least 10 times faster than your average colleague. How I'm supposed to do that in remote environment? The only real reason I use VS Code is fast navigation in bloated spaghetti code.

[@eurosat7]

Am I the only one having problems with such services? Is your code so generic that it is not worth being protected?

[@EdwinFairchild]

"faster than your laptop" lol , do people really (only) use a laptops to code? I mean I have a beast laptop but my desktop still leaves it in the dust. And my work laptop is hardly used I have a desktop over there too.

[@allNicksAlreadyTaken]

That 4 core VM he was using costs $0.36 per hour. So if you leave it open through the night by accident, that's $3 right there. So for now I am not interested.

[@josecanciani]

It’s like vscode-server or the Remote extension, but fully automated. I’ve been using remote on a VM to run my x86-only projects on my M1 mac. Works incredible (aside from network reconnects when my vpn fails). There’s a remote vscode process running in the vm, you install extensions there, and it even keeps your terminal open if you disconnect.

[@LukeBarousse]

It's settled... i'm ditching the M1 Max going back to my Macbook Air with Codespaces

Title: "No more VS code"

[@edborowski5950]

I was just looking at this the other day and was curious. Very timely thanks Alex!!!

[@chrisalexthomas]

@alex it looks like it's running each codespace as a container, so it spins up a container with the code which is a distributed copy, and it probably won't change until you reopen it, or develop inside the codespace directly? maybe something like that?

[@niallmurphy2163]

I've been doing CS50 through codespaces. I think they just started using it this year. It's remarkably good. I can switch between devices and what I've written is there, almost like Google Docs. I don't know if every codespace works like that.

[@RiccardoRessi]

The VS Code on your machine is connected via SSH with their machine in the cloud.

[@viniciusataidedealbuquerqu2837]

it's not updating because it's not the same instance running the server. they don't share the same filesystem so you have to force synchronization with your browser pod, if you started the server on your VSCOde connected to codespaces it would update seamlessly

[@delaimo13]

I wonder how the intellisense performance is in comparison to a regular laptop, sometimes it takes a little while to find typescript types or imports.

[@mecharenastuff]

Is there any way to customize my personal dashboard? I'm so close to creating the perfect workflow, I just need to edit what shows up in the "browse activity" section! ...

[@JulianLiebl]

What's the difference to code-server? Running my stuff on Hetzner servers since it came out and never looked back. It is freaking awesome. I especially like that I can just continue where I left with support for multiple terminal sessions and switch between devices without a hassle.

[@guillermodanielmazzarigiov1768]

Does anyone know if this will be available for visual studio 2022, I repeat, visual studio2022, not visual studio code
