Uses

Here are some of the things I use in my day-to-day life as a software developer (and human).

Development

Nowadays, I mostly use VSCode with the Vim extension. I find the out-of-the-box experience fantastic and I still get to use my beloved Vim key bindings.
When necessary, I use iTerm2 along with Vim and tmux. Although, I am gravitating towards the integrated VSCode terminal + tmux when possible.
I use the Fira Code font with ligatures.
Feel free to ~~criticize~~ compliment my configuration files.

My desk consists of an IKEA tabletop and legs.
I sit on a fairly comfortable IKEA chair. I like IKEA products because they are usually affordable and of decent quality.
The real MVP is my MacBook Pro.
I usually keep my laptop closed with a vertical stand and use a single Samsung 28" 4k Monitor on top of a monitor stand.
My laptop connects to everything using a single cable with the CalDigit Thunderbolt 3 Dock. This thing is amazing!
These Kanto Desktop Speakers and stands are great for enjoying movies, listening to music, and following video tutorials.
My perihperals of choice are the Logitech MX Master and the CODE Mechanical Keyboard.

I mostly listen to podcasts and audiobooks on the Jaybird Vista Wireless Headphones.
Anova Precision Cooker: A friend introduced me to this method of cooking and I have been making perfectly cooked steaks and chicken breasts.
