Here’s my setup:

The case is a lian li o11 xl? rog version. I use the dual monitors for writing code, makes it easier to get a long function on one screen. All the electronics and prototyping stuff is in reach, I like this setup a lot. I wish I had shelves for my electronics desk, not nearly enough storage space for all that.

Nice setup brother :)

Can you imagine back in the late 60s how the writing of Unix must have been ?? Or into the 70s at MIT.... Those sadistic fuckers were using TECO ! I've never used my name as a command to see what it did but I also was a fan of VIm over most editors. As they say when telling newbies to learn VI; "It's always there so learn to use it" haha. I did use Emacs at times too as I liked some of the themes available, but a lot of the time I found VI just way quicker. Specially for something like a config file where you may not have a GUI running but need to edit something real quick.

That's also why it's good to have someone setup a properly configured file server; Can you imagine making a few changes to a file, and then 2 minutes later it's gone because of a typo ? Heh, Computers have come a long way :)

I used to have a floppy disk (Back when computers came with those) that had a batch file on it where it would copy all the passwords in memory to the floppy, and delete the file system. I called that floppy"Bitch Batch" cause if it ran it was a bitch to take care of. Basically you had to re-install the OS.

I’m learning some more python, to make a code generation tool for this library I’m working on. I’m using PyQt Qt Designer to make the actual interface, which is a drag n drop designer. So I don’t have to fart around learning how to design the ui. I’m just watching tutorial videos on YouTube on how to use it. Took a minute to get my environment set up in vscode, and be able to import the modules. Python is… different from c and c++. It’s lazyficient? The only other python thing I’ve written was to connect to MySQL and do some inserts, no ui just json->gen sql insert. So this is a leap.
