I feel the same way!

I asked our contact and they said it was coming "later next year", back in December. We'll see if it does, because it's a nice system and it would let a lot of people replace Jenkins, etc.

I remember considering paying thousands of dollars + travel + SF hotel to watch this last year. There's some silver lining in everyone being locked down - we can now watch all the good content from GitHub, Apple, you name, all virtual, remote.

Gitlab solved this properly by making runners private to (private and public) organizations and repos.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

This is amazing. I've been using VS Code Server ( https://github.com/cdr/code-server ) to self-host a browser-based editor I can access from my tablet and code on the go, but it's been a hassle to keep it all running smoothly.. As long as pricing is reasonable, Codespaces seems like my future solution.

As an alternative to VS Code Server, you can install the vsonline CLI which is distributed via .deb and other package mechanisms. Once installed, it installs the backend side of VS Code Remote and it's distributed by Microsoft. You _don't_ need to register your machine, you can set up your own authenticating reverse proxy over it and run it on port 8000 like so: $HOME/.vscode-remote/bin/[some hash here]/server.sh I j…

Interesting, I'll look into that..

I run VS Code Server on a headless mac mini at home, and I map a subdomain to my home IP (because it needs SSL for the web workers I believe), and then I can connect to it over https from my tablet on the go. I use basic auth on the nginx proxy, and it works for my needs.

That part is working fine.

The hassle is the DNS mapping because my provider doesn't officially support dynamic DNS, and doesn't have an API, so I am using a variety of unofficial workarounds to automate this part and it's not always reliable, although thankfully my home IP does not seem to change too often.

That keynote from Nat Friedman an hour ago looks interesting. How do you play past segments in this thing?

Yeah, took me some time/clicks to "solve": go to the live stream and click at the red line (I guess later the will cut the segments as separated videos). https://youtu.be/FhZTPM9ysWk

I don't know about Github, but Apple and Microsoft have both run their major events live online for years (and at least the last two WWDCs have been streamed live by Apple in their entirety).

The really interesting thing here will be how these virtual conferences replicate some of the face-to-face aspects of the real-world conferences: labs, workshops, networking with other developers, etc. Github appears to be using this as an opportunity to introduce and trial Github Discussions, for example.
