-When first launching remote-ssh for a NixOS host, the connection will fail due to a missing glibc dependency in the shipped node.js. This can be resolved by installing the 'nodejs-12_x' package on the NixOS host, and following the instructions in https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/648#issuecomment-503148523. Note that nodejs needs to be updated according to VS Code upstream requirements (node 12 is needed as of 12/6/2019)

+This can be resolved by installing the <code>nodejs-12_x</code> package on the NixOS host.
+If vscode-remote is installed from nix (vscode-extensions.ms-vscode-remote) this will automatically replace the node.js shipped by the extension. If the extension was installed from the store itself follow the instructions in https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/648#issuecomment-503148523.
