pegleron GitHub’s engineering team has moved to Codespaces

I am wary of requiring an internet connection in order to develop, but there seem to be more and more advantages to using something like Codespaces.

The article describes using pretty much any IDE, so they are just offloading the setup and running of the development environment to the cloud while letting you run your preferred IDE locally.

pegleron GitHub’s engineering team has moved to Codespaces

The article mentions supporting vim and emac, which probably means any editor can be supported.

  Visual Studio Code is great. It’s the primary tool GitHub.com engineers use to interface with codespaces. But asking our Vim and Emacs users to commit to a graphical editor is less great. If Codespaces was our future, we had to bring everyone along.

  Happily, we could support our shell-based colleagues through a simple update to our prebuilt image which initializes sshd with our GitHub public keys, opens port 22, and forwards the port out of the codespace.

pegleron CircleCI's incident response

I emailed GitHub this morning around 8am EST. I received this response this afternoon. It sounds like they are doing their own audit and will contact you if they find anything unusual:

> I wanted to check in with you about this incident - access to repositories on GitHub is logged and we're currently investigating the potential of unauthorized repository access allowed by the MongoHQ and CircleCI breaches. Although we don’t currently have any evidence of unauthorized access, or specific news regarding your repositories.

> Last night, in coordination with CircleCI, we revoked all SSH keys and OAuth tokens added to GitHub accounts and repositories by their service. We'll be in contact again when we have a more substantial update or news about your organization's repositories.
