Monodraw for windows5/7/2023 I bought it because I'm fascinated by servers. I bought it two years ago, when chances were already high that The Cloud, as it were, and mobile computing would win in their fight to eliminate "files", "hard drive" and "storage devices" from our collective vocabulary. I couldn't ask for more.Īnother favorite device of mine is my NAS, a Synology DS716+II with a total capacity of 4TB. It's fast as hell, the screen is incredible and the camera gets a "wait, what, you shot that with your phone?" every time I shove baby pictures into someone else's face. This is probably the best computing device I've ever had. I'm not a big phone productivity nerd but I have to mention my iPhone X. It's my first really high-quality office chair and the reason why I'm now fully convinced that it really does pay off to invest in a good chair, just like everybody says it does. Now, when I'm sitting, I'm sitting on a Steelcase Gesture. Main requirement: it had to be adjustable through the push of a button - otherwise I'd be too lazy to switch enough between sitting and standing. I've always wanted to give standing desks a try and after using them at work for a few months I decided to get one. My desk at home is a height-adjustable Steelcase Ology. I never thought I'd say this about a computer mouse, but it feels and sounds good - that's one serious click. That was two years ago and it's been my main mouse ever since - at home and at work. It's loud.Īfter years of using an external Magic Trackpad my wrist told me in unmistakable terms that it's had enough and after a short flirt with vertical mice I settled my right hand on a SteelSeries Rival 110. At work I use an Apple Magic Keyboard, because I haven't found the courage to take the spare KUL ES-87 to the office. Before that I used a KUL ES-87 with Cherry MX Blue switches. Great feel, great sound and its look is understated and elegant. My keyboard at home is a Topre Realforce 87U, which I adore. With an external display, the laptop sits to its right its screen practically unused, only serving as a drag'n'drop destination for temporary files. When in use, both machines are either plugged into a 27-inch Dell monitor, with an external keyboard and mouse, or they sit on my lap. When I booted it up the first time, I thought it's the best computer I've ever used. I also have a 13-inch MacBook Pro from 2015, with 16GB of memory and a 256GB SSD. The other downside of this MacBook Pro is that it serves as a daily reminder of the unfulfilled dream of USB-C: I still have use an external USB hub and multiple USB-to-USB-C adapters because the one hub that has the necessary ports doesn't exist yet. That's more than just annoying and the keyboard's clickyness doesn't make up for it. I don't think I could live without it anymore.Īs for the infamous keyboard that ships with this generation of MacBook Pros: typing on it feels great, but I had to have the whole top unit of the computer replaced because of a stuck key. I like it a lot.Īnd while I don't care about the Touch Bar, I also don't care about the removed Esc key - I map Caps Lock to Control and use Ctrl-[ instead. It's fast, it's quiet and it has enough resources to let me write code and prose. It has the Touch Bar, 16GB of memory, a 512GB SSD and four Thunderbolt 3 ports. My main machine is a 2016 13-inch MacBook Pro. I wrote Writing An Interpreter In Go and its sequel Writing A Compiler In Go and I work at ioki Mobility.
