Every once in a while I get asked what I use for certain things, so here we are.

Desk

  • For both writing articles and coding, as of 2021 I use a base model 13" MacBook Air M1 with 8GB RAM. I used to use a 2011 MacBook Pro that I retrofitted with 16 GB RAM and an SSD.
  • I often don't use a desk (the sofa is more comfortable) for my side-projects, but when I do, I use an MX Master 2s mouse, and a Leopold FC660M keyboard.
  • My monitor is a 27" 4k LG 27UL500-W, mounted on a North Bayou Monitor Arm.
  • I also use a few UGREEN 4 port USB 3.0 hubs to connect everything together.

Music

  • I code almost exclusively while listening to music. I either use an IKEA x SONOS speaker, or AirPods Pro to achieve this.

Recording

  • I use ScreenFlow for recording and editing screencasts.
  • I use an AT2020 as a microphone, and a pair of Bose QC35s for my headphones.
  • My microphone is mounted on a Røde PSA1 boom arm.
