![]() ![]() Web sites are accessed over ports 80 and 443 so if you run a web server those ports need to be open. Most computers and networks today have firewalls so you cannot access them without opening ports, or doors, into their juicy innards. However I will assume basic knowledge of SSH here, so if you lack that basic knowledge, you can for example check out this tutorial at Digitalocean and then come back :)Īnother concept you need to be familiar with is that of ports. But if you’ve ever used GitHub to store your code you’ve probably already used SSH. If you’ve never heard of SSH this tutorial might be tricky. In case you don’t care for long explanations there’s a TL DR towards the end. With SSH tunnels, results can still be slow to arrive, but at least the image won’t become huge pixels where you can’t see the text anymore :) With TeamViewer you send the entire picture of the desktop so it can often be unresponsive, especially if you’re on a bad connection. But the advantage of this method is that much less information has to travel over the interwebs. Maybe you already use TeamViewer or similar software and don’t see the point of this exercise. What? I can access a remote machine by writing local host? Yes. That’s when I connect to a machine in my office by typing and I get a full jupyter lab session that’s running on the office machine. My laptop is fine for the initial experimentation, but at some point I need more computational power to do ‘big runs’ of my models. Currently this work mostly involves writing Python code for simulations and modelling of data. I’ve been working from home since early March now. I hope you and your loved ones are safe in these disturbing times. ![]()
