• British employees adapted to WFH without hitting productivity - with output now higher than before the pandemic, data shows

  Https://tmate.io is a great tool for pair programming with terminal based editors. Much better than sharing a screen IMHO, because pairing partners need to be able to interact at the keys. Source: about 2 years ago

• If you were interviewing for a job, and the interviewer asked you to ssh -X in to a server using your own computer, would you be OK with that?

• Termius (YC W19) – Share your terminal session like Google Docs

  I was looking for something like this recently, and found tmate [0], which is an open source solution to the terminal-sharing problem. I have no idea what Termius is, but I have some feedback for you — your landing page takes over 4 seconds (!) to show anything for me on Firefox, even if I have visited the page before. This doesn't seem to be related to loading resources alone, since that happens fairly fast. (I... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• $ sudo rm -rf / === NPM install

  Some of this is solved with locked dependencies and an understanding of how "npm install" actually works, but I find this point really takes away any credibility for this article: > This is just one of the reasons why I think by 2023 working with ephemeral cloud-based dev environments will be the standard. Just like CI/CD is today. Over my dead body will I ever use a cloud environment to write code. tmate[0] might... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Status of collaborative editing with NeoVim for pair programming and editing shared documents?

  I've never tried having neovim provide this feature, but if you are okay with having another program provide it you might have a look at tmate. It is a tmux fork providing builtin sharing capabilities that I quite like. Source: over 2 years ago

• Five Ansible Techniques I Wish I’d Known Earlier

  I'm sure it isn't the best way, but we use GitHub Actions to run some Ansible playbooks. When there's a problem that needs debugging we add a tmate[0] session with mxschmitt's action[1].

• Is tmate safe?

  I recently came across a terminal sharing program called tmate. There isn't much info/review about it on the internet other then 1 or 2 videos/articles. I was wondering about the safety of it cuz you only need to send a link, for a person get commandline access to your pc. Does anybody have any experience with it? Source: almost 3 years ago

• Next time when your friend ask to solve some issue in his Linux. You can use tmate instead of guiding and sharing commands though messages.

  However, if you want assurance of security, it seems you can specify SSH keys to be used. That way, no 3rd person can snoop on the session. Search "Access control" here https://tmate.io. Source: almost 3 years ago

• What are the most useful VSCode extensions you know which could be reimplemented in Emacs?

  We sometimes like to use TMate for pair programming. You install the client and then run it in your shell, the shell connects to the TMate server which creates a Tmux session for you that you can connect to via SSH, and the client prints the SSH login address on your terminal which you share with your coding partners.
