Home office
I use a recent-ish model MacBook Air for work (it's a 2024 13" M3, but predates the November 2024 line-wide bump to 16GB RAM). I picked up a Samsung 28" 4K monitor for cheap, but as it doesn't have an onboard webcam like my much-missed LG UltraFine 5K , I've had to attach a Logitech Brio 300 webcam. Continuing the theme, I have a Logitech MX Keys for Mac keyboard (flat keyboards with low travel ftw) and a Logitech MX Master 3S mouse. These sit on an Orbitkey desk mat , which in turn sits on an Ikea Bekant desk, while I sit on a Steelcase Gesture chair.
EDC
I don't carry a lot in my pockets - just my iPhone 16 Plus (in white) with a PopWallet+ MagSafe 1 attached, and an Apple Watch Series 9 on my wrist. Everything else goes in my trusty City Pack Pro X-Pac backpack.
In the backpack you'll usually find my laptop, an iPad Air (5th generation), AirPods Pro 2 and/or AirPods Max (depending on the day), a Yeti Rambler 36oz in Alpine Yellow, my Bellroy tech kit , and some Oakley Holbrook sunglasses.
Tech
The stuff I use every day includes the Zed editor, Warp terminal app, Arc , Mail (I have gone through so many mail clients for macOS and this truly is the best of a bad bunch), Notion, 1Password, Reminders, Alfred, Rocket , PopClip , Moom, Shottr , Spotify, and the Breville Precision Brewer .
This blog uses Astro with the Astro Erudite theme and is hosted on Vercel .

Now that VicRoads has launched digital licenses, my Myki is the only reason I need this at all... and hopefully not for much longer. ↩
