1. It looks like Syncthing is an application that lets you sync files? Moonglow runs one layer below - we call cloud apis for you, to set up and connect you to a remote Jupyter kernel. 2. I think the serverless here is actually pretty liter

Not exactly. Brev.dev helps you set up a Jupyter server, but you still need to set up your connection to it yourself. It's also mostly designed to run on the browser. Moonglow abstracts over this, so you don't need to think about

Excited to hear that! There's no SSH keys to store - we start a tunnel from the remote machine and connect to that.

Yeah, I agree! We looked into integrating Moonglow with academic clusters, because many of my ML PhD friends complained about using them. We unfortunately haven't found a good generalized solution, so I think VSCode's remote SSH +

We make sure the remote containers have CUDA/Pytorch/Numpy/Matplotlib set up if you're using a GPU-based machine. It's actually far easier for me to run ML-based code through Moonglow now than on my Macbook - it&#x2

Cool! We actually don't do port forwarding over SSH, we do it over an ngrok-like solution that we forked/modified. I looked at a few options while we were designing this, including Tailscale and ngrok, but none of them exactly sui

I'm not super familiar with dbx (though its docs at https://docs.databricks.com/en/archive/dev-tools/dbx/dbx.htm... suggest it's deprecated). However, looking at its replacement here ( https:&#

A lot of the people we've talked to who get the most value out of remote compute are doing really intensive stuff - they need server-level resources far beyond what you can find on a consumer laptop! Hopefully someday you'll have

I don't think so, if that jupyter command just runs against your local servers. We register the moonglow remote servers with VSCode through the extension, and my guess is we'd need to do something similar with Zed.

Ah, yeah, I misspoke, sorry. I was aware of that feature, but everyone I've talked to said it's so annoying to use they basically never use it, so I didn't think it was worth mentioning. The big reason it's annoying is b

Thanks! The big difference is that Google Colab runs in your web browser, whereas Moonglow lets you connect to compute in the VSCode/Cursor notebook interface. We've found a lot of people really like the code-completion in VSCode&

Thanks! One thing I've found while working in the ML space is that it seems like ML researchers have to deal with a lot of systems cruft. I think that in the limit, ML researchers basically only care having about a few things set up we

Good question! I'm not too familiar with Zed, but here's my high-level guess from reading the website: we don't currently integrate with Zed, but we probably could if it supports remote kernels (the docs I found at https:&#x

We don't right now, but it's something a lot of people have asked for, so we're rolling out a file sync feature next week. (It will basically be a nice wrapper over rsync.)

I have also heard that failure rates on new GPUs are very high (approaching 20% if not burnt in), so that's unsurprising. It's the other stuff I was more surprised about. I would have guessed that having your Ethernet cables plugg

This part in particular caught my eye: > Step 2: Diagnosing broken machines > As is typical in setting up large GPU clusters, we found that about 10% of the machines failed to boot, mostly due to physical issues with the servers. Some
