> as a co-founder who is spending less time as a developer, and more time in meetings, writing emails, strategy papers, [...] this is just amazing [...] I’ve been spending a lot of time getting Windows Subsystem for Linux working

lol, just ssh into a $3 vps as dev machine, real Ubuntu, real tmux/(n)vim, no setup, no hassle

Edit: to be fair, Cloud9 was my entry drug into remote development bringing me to my setup above; the idea is awesome and Github Codespaces is too but there are just too many limitations and having a real, ever-running Linux vps everywhere, even on your phone is just magic and even when you write strategy papers...
