I think it's because it's not simply a file download but instead keeps on asking for file content or meta data making a roundtrip on each files to cause excessive latencies against many files. All the tools are basically designed

Never do find in files or run package managers? JetBrains never works on sshfs as it parses files for dependencies.

Copy project files locally and upload on save? This is just so simple and performing, not sure why anyone is struggling with other worse solutions. The only better method would be vscode remote editing plugin.

I guess they'll catch up with Fleet but it's still in private beta and not for use yet.

Vscode being free, I suppose the only real contenders are Sublime Text or JetBrains. Everything else either free or paid seem like a non option.

Does anyone seriously use nano for programming? Also I'd probably get pissed for using vim over ssh session to program when sometimes the network could sporadically slows down my cursor movement.

sshfs works for only 10 files or less project.

Do people who work over sshfs never search for a string over all files? Or your editor wants to parse codes from all files to find dependencies etc? Save on upload of a local copy is far superior.

No one wants to open up project files over sshfs... Do a search on all files and you'll need a break. Code parsing definitely can take forever using JetBrains.

What is the advantage of using vim these days over VS code, Sublime text or JetBrains to upload on save through ssh? Even if you took years to get vim right, I still don't think it matches to the other 3 for programming. What is your v

Unless entire operations can be finished automatically, you could still do, command_to_test && exit in the swarm of tmux tabs and let only the anomalies stay open.

If you want to execute commands on multiple remote hosts over SSH, just run a tmux session and launch a tab on each host in a loop and execute them. It's far easier to follow the output and individually deal with prompts.

There are projects you can try new things with and projects that should just work when it's expected for many people to use. Don't push your excitement to the users.

Funny in here, people praise SQLite but dismiss MySQL when it's tiny bit off the SQL standard and people complain how PHP converts values with best effort guess on different types but not when SQLite does that too. Don't know why

GitLab is a prime example of "do many things and do them averagely". Sure it got many features but there are bugs and each feature isn't as polished as other isolated apps and it takes huge resource. How it turned out to be a

I don't get why everyone wants git status on every prompt. It feels more of a distraction than necessity just to make it look prettier for screenshot purposes. Most of the time I'm within a repo directory, I don't care in whi

Just to get started, all you need is a 2GB Ubuntu instance that is $10/mo or pick rsync.net with zfs capability which gives you 1TB for $25/mo. If you want easy fast backup, even hobbyist shouldn't overlook zfs. Besides, Borg

You could spread the backup into several isolated borg repos and run in parallel if CPU is the bottleneck.
