sshfs is god awful slow for heavy local editor use. I don't understand what vscode provides other than an editor when all those capabilities are something that already exists when working directly on a remote machine, either. I am as

Quite sure. Here's the documentation. https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/remote-overview It seems like it runs all the functionality on the remote end, and the vscode instance you're running on t

I wish the vscode remote dev functionality didn't require a binary server/remote side component. I have a bunch of users who want to use it, but it's not compatible with the system libraries on our servers and dev environment

It's not that TCP can't be changed, it's that it's the only option that works. TCP is baked into firmware on edge routers and firewalls and wifi devices that are beyond the period of support and the companies that create

The best there is with the context package is to make sure to call the cancel function given to you by contexts that have cancelation. Usually you do this via defer. The cancel function is a no-op if the context is finished otherwise. All t

What rhetoric? Are you confusing this with "the 10x programmer" meme? Claims of becoming a 10x better programmer aren't claims about making one a 10x programmer. The former is about relative self-improvement and motivationall

The compiler cares because they want to enforce this standard (and it may make the parser slightly simpler). That there is a mix, or at least a non-obvious break between what the compiler enforces and what the formatter will accept and prod

I've seen go code fail to compile because a closing } was on the next line and there wasn't a trailing comma. That actually is a syntax error, as go enforces (that is they are not optional) trailing commas. gofmt only formats sy

That's an interesting observation and contrast. I like the economic (supply and demand) perspective, when the market is flooded with expression, expression is cheap. When one can respond in kind to criticism, the need for centralized
