Editor + Terminal

Visual Studio Code is my text editor of choice.
I'm currently using Monaspace Neon as my coding font of choice.
Tabs > spaces. I prefer my tab width set to 3.
My editor is (always) in light mode using the GitHub Light theme.
To add a bit of friendliness and whimsy into the editor, I've changed the icon set to Catppuccin Icons
For the terminal emulator, I'm relying on Ghostty.

Arc is (still) my daily driver browser.
I use Figma for designing things, Notion for note taking, and Linear for project management.

For video recording, I use a Sony Alpha 6400 with a Sigma 16mm lens.
For audio, I use a Blue Yeti X for calls / voice recordings, and a Universal Audio Apollo Solo for guitar and other instruments.

I'm alternating between sitting and standing using an Autonomous standing desk
My desk monitor setup is a pair of Apple Studio Displays side by side, with my laptop in clamshell mode mounted under my desk.
I use Apple's Magic Trackpad, Magic Keyboard, and Magic Mouse. Weirdly this combination gives me the least wrist fatigue on long days.
When I'm trying to focus — and I'm not in meetings — I use the Sony WH-1000XM5 to blast some music
I'm using a M4 Pro MacBook Pro with 24GB of RAM.
