I want to try Ergodox Keyboard now! That looks so cool! I do have an ergonomic keyboard and was thinking to try something new... thanks!

Really enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing. A friend of mine has a programmable keyboard, and I find the concept intriguing. My primary aversion to it is that I can't actually type touch the taught way. Book recommendation: Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg

Thank you for the video! A lot of things I can get useful for me.

A small note about the Macbook keyboard Esc button: starting with 2020 models it's a mechanical dedicated key again.
I have also non mechanical and not dedicated Esc button on my Macbook 2018 model, that's why I'm using the Magic Keyboard instead - much better experiense especially when you're using the second monitor connected to the laptop.

Cold Turkey Blocker is ultimate solution for blocking sites, apps and games.

I just watched a few of your videos, in some of your older ones you seemed nervous, but you seem much more relaxed now! Definitely hitting your stride with it. Love the tips, I'd love to get the ErgoDox or something like it. I've got an old, crappy Dell keyboard and on long coding sprints it makes my wrists hurt.

Why do you like coding too much? What drives and motivates you?

[geekyprogrammer]

Your tutorials are great but why you shaved your head :/

Hey Gwen I have watched a few of your Vue vidoes, I want to build a market place where vendors can sell physical products and services. My studying is a bit all over the place right now. Any advice on where to start, how to go about it. Please help
