[Gluex_grad_postdoc] GitHub Student Developer Pack

[Tyler Viducic]

Hello my fellow underpaid research scientists,

For those of you who are unaware, GitHub offers a pretty sweet Student Developer Pack to students with active .edu email addresses (sorry postdocs, though you’re welcome to try to beat the system anyway ✊).

GitHub Student Developer Pack
education.github.com

It includes, but is not even remotely limited to:
- GitHub Pro
- JetBrains license (stop coding in emacs/vim you monsters! Use VS Code! Which is…not jetbrains)
- Educative for 6 months (learn new stuff! Because we don’t have enough going on day-to-day and we all have tons of time)
- DigitalOcean for a year (if you’re into cloud hosting!)
- Free year for a .me domain address from namecheap (make that website for yourself that you’ve been thinking about for a year or two and no this isn't oddly specific and personal why do you ask)
- 1Password for a year (GOAT password manager, you’ll pay for it after because it rocks)
- Terminus (so you can log in to the farm and submit jobs even if you’re out and about because we’re expected to work 24/7 amiright)
- GitHub Pages (tbh not sure what this is but seems cool and along the lines of a personal page for potential employers to marvel at. Break out those MySpace skillz)
- ...And a bunch of other stuff!!

It’s free. So sign up anyway even if you don’t use anything. 


In solidarity!
