    One thing I've discovered is that a pair of good speakers largely improve the quality of life and work. I've put two good-old (bought in 1984) Bose 101MM speakers with a small external amplifier Fostex AP20d connected to Roland Rubix24 audio interface connected to the Mac mini 2018 for work. The speakers give the right sound (which I've been listening to for the past 36 years(!)) with the right stereo image with well-aligned phases of the two speakers.

    I also love it when the walls are painted white, the table is the color of wood, and the plants, but table speakers for a minimalist superfluous. I only have headphones. I think 60% of the keyboard is more comfortable to use. And the sound of blue switches replaces my music

  • @dspirit2

    Ideally you should have 3 monitors. One for your IDE, one to run your simulator or emulator (if you are an Android dev) to test your app, and another one to display API help/stackoverflow/etc. 😎

  • @PCGamingGoodies
    @PCGamingGoodies Před 3 lety +1

    I prefer a multi-level desk that has a lower portion for keyboard and mouse to prevent arm strain, a higher potion for the monitor to prevent neck strain, and a portion of normal height for other tasks. in some cases, the keyboard portion can slide under the desk to save space. On my desk, the mouse portion can also slide under the keyboard portion to save even more space. Such a desk would look a bit bulky, naturally, and would also not give you a lot of leg room.

Now we will code better.

    • @gabrielwong5910
      @gabrielwong5910 Před 2 lety

      @@SAMUELTHESIXTH Tbh not many companies provide their employees with 144hz or better laptops so my comment wouldn't make too much sense if you know you're given a max 60hz refresh rate device. The 2015 MacBook Pro won't be able to run a 144hz monitor. Unless you upgrade its gpu somehow, build your own PC with a graphics card capable of running 144hz, or buy a gaming laptop that has a more powerful graphics card, it wouldn't be possible. BUT once you try a monitor or any device with a 144hz display, I can guarantee you won't want to go back and it's dangerous haha.

      If you learn some of the basic languages then yes. Most companies just want a degree and if you're capable of being a software engineer, which really just entails using programming to solve issues, then you'll be fine. Most of your learning will come when you're actually given something to do and you'll need to figure out how to do it.
