Software I use, gadgets I love, and other things I recommend.
Here's a big list of all of my favorite stuff.
Workstation
15.3” MacBook Air, M3, 16GB RAM (2023)
This laptop is a great machine that can handle virtually I've thrown at it, making it a worthwhile investment for anyone looking for a reliable and powerful laptop that can be used for years.
Samsung UR59C 4K Curved Monitor
4K Resolution which helps with working for long periods of time as it is more comfortable on the eyes. Only 60hz refresh rate but it;s greate for the price
ThinkPad T14s Gen 3 (Intel)
This is my work machine which I use for my scripts and data analysis. Im not a fan of Windows but this machine is a beast and I love the ergonomic design of the keyboard. Makes those long work days more bearable.
Logitech MX Master 3
Because the Apple Magic Mouse sucks and this is the only mouse that doesn't lag with my Macbook
Software
Visual Studio Code
First code editor I've used and only one my companies IT will approve of. Great Editor
Cursor
VS Code but for your codebase, has made creating frontends for my app way easier and writinng this description
MongoDB
Just super easy to use for my personal projects
DBeaver
Great tool for working with databases
Notion
I use it for everything. I have a separate workspace for each of my projects and I use it to keep track of my tasks, notes, and ideas.
Metabase
Use this primarily at work. I like the interface and how easy it is to create reports, visualizations and data models
