Decided to spend my money on decent, upgradeable hardware instead of shelling out 5k for another MB Pro. My next MacBook will probably be the most low-end I can get.
VSCode's remote/docker support is a godsend. Seems like we're heading back to the dumb terminal paradigm.
I ask because I was excited about this prospect only to learn that I could only use Remote: Containers if codebase and container are on the same machine as the project workspace is just volume-mounted in the container.
You can get around this by running git clone inside your container as part of the startup process. But 1. It can add quite a delay to starting a container depending on the size of your codebase, and 2. Not all of my code is necessarily committed and pushed.
For me, syncing works well but I can see how it would not suit every use case
Probably similar reasons to what you mean by not having all code committed and pushed.
I wasn't aware of that setup you linked. I'll give that a go, thanks!
Like a normal VPS but you can get dat 64 cores + 64gb ram only the day you need them and otherwise pay a low monthly fee.

Granted it's not 64cores, but still fast.
In this case it really is more than thousands of times more powerful.
Hehem. The paradigm you're referencing is letting you do what you want to do (because it's a powerful paradigm). We need more of that if anything.
