Am I thinking about this right? A Mac Mini M5 Max maxed out and a MacBook Neo as a thin client and just ssh when on the go

I've been an avid AirPod user since 2016, today I made the switch to a pair of Nothing Ear (a) and I'm not looking back. Great fitting, ANC and audio quality. Unbelievable it's 1/3 of the price as well.

I've been interviewing lots of candidates for a fullstack engineer role and the similarities between candidates are very interesting to me. Majority leans into frontend rather than backend, prefers mongodb and the "mern stack". It's of course a small dataset but still interesting metrics.

The audacity of Claude to first hit me with a "Actually, that's not quite correct." and then fall back to "Ah - you're absolutely right and I was wrong."

Working on a project outside of Github is like going for a run without your fitness tracker. It's like it doesn't count and you don't feel as good afterwards.

I switch audio outputs multiple times per day and now when I run sway there's no built in feature that helps me to this, so I wrote a small script. When the feature usually is a dropdown in macos/gnome desktop I always opt for using fzf.

Linux hits you so hard when going from gnome in Ubuntu to some other window manager. You want to connect to a WiFi, you need a script for that. Raise/lower volume your system audio, write a script and bind it to some key. Don't get me started on adjusting screen brightness.

You are up to date.
