Maybe related to Firefox/Chrome cake history...
- ghuntley 5y agoHey, Geoff from Gitpod here (and the person who was behind cake to GitHub Codespaces). Indeed it is exactly related to that. Always was a fan of the idea of cake being shipped between product teams and the launch of Codespaces was a perfect chance to start a new tradition! I would be v.happy to send cake (or macaroons) to the VSCode team as well but don’t have contacts. If you are in the team lemme know.
- pfranz 5y agoI believe that tradition was started in 2006 when Microsoft send Firefox dev team a cake https://news.softpedia.com/news/why-microsoft-google-and-mozilla-send-each-other-cakes-after-launching-browsers-528960.shtml https://news.softpedia.com/news/why-microsoft-google-and-moz... Like others mentioned, this story seems to be reference to Gitpod sending GitHub a launch cake for Codespaces. https://www.gitpod.io/blog/cake https://www.gitpod.io/blog/cake
