Hi HN! I've been hacking on this side project for the last month or two with the goal of making it dead simple to use cloud GPUs.

I ran into this problem personally during the phd, and built my own tooling around it. I always thought it'd be fun to try to turn that tooling into a more general product... and bitbop.io is the result!

All you have to do is run `ssh bitbop.io`, and you get your own personal dev GPU workstation in the cloud.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

I like the simplicity.

On your pricing you state that for $19 (presuming USD?)/mo you get 'CPU, T4, and V100 GPU machines' - how do you manage fair usage of the GPU hours?

For example, if I wanted a V100 for say 3 hours today, then another 3 hours tomorrow - how does that work? What are the limits?

Also - what is the internet connectivity? How many MB / GB/s up/down to US east/west, AWS Sydney/Melbourne?

Just tried it on my mac. Same issue as the other user. Does not recognise my ssh key failed to match it on GitHub.

Make sure you pass -i ~/.ssh/your-github-added-key to ssh, that fixed it for me.

I've noticed all users do not have their username.keys endpoint exposed on GitHub. I think it might be a privacy preference. (Disclaimer: haven't checked)

Just tried this on a-Shell and got

> Permission denied (publickey).

… and same thing on iSH.

This is covered in the FAQ at the bottom https://bitbop.io/ (Note to developer: every (sub)heading on the page needs to be possible to link to.)

It did accept my RSA key, so I got a bit further than you, but then it failed to match it to the pubkey in my GitHub .keys file.
