Thanks for suggesting this. I have not tried it because the photos are on an external SMB network drive.

How well do you think this would work on stock photography on m1 mac with 32GB ram? For example I'd like to be able to search a folder of ~2k photos for houses with palm trees. Or find photos of kitchens, or find photos of desert southwest landscapes.

I use a low folding beach chair that I think my wife got at a CVS or Walgreens store (US). Sorry I don't have a model number or better photo of the whole chair. One "c" clamp is enough to hold a board in place for the laptop. I'm about 61.5 kilos / 177 cm. In a shady spot I can work comfortably for a few hours with short breaks. The low height means I can put my legs out in front of me. The board fits inside the chair when its folded so I can carry them with one hand.

Rearview mirror at the top of my 52" curved widescreen monitor. I work at home in limited space with family around and there's always activity behind me, doors opening, etc. I also work with noise cancelling headphones. Hard to explain why, but the mirror stops my constant need to turn around to figure out what's happening. It took me a minute to hang, with fishing line and zip-ties. Way less cognitive overhead and fewer self-made interruptions since implementing this. $13 - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08MFD7BT7

I record sounds with a Shure MV88+ stereo condenser microphone connected to an iPhone. I airdrop the WAV files to a MacBook Pro, where a python script normalizes the audio to a loudness level of -14 LUFS with a level of -1 dBTP (dB True Peak ), generates an HD video, and posts it to YouTube. I'm just getting started. It's more of a hobby than a hustle.

Very quickly added knobs and filters and mapped them to my NI controller with no friction. Legit acid tones within minutes.

> There are actually ways to manage huge monolithic application that don't require each team to have their own repository, ci/cd, binary, etc.

Would be interested to hear about some of these.

As a solo indie developer running my own saas business for 20+ years now, and rarely interacting with other devs, this survey is priceless. I often wonder where I and my stack/tools are in relation to the rest of the field. This report (even if it is biased or skewed) makes me feel like I'm not alone and gives me some validation on my life path and technology choices.

I'm not sure this is the intended use case, but this website allowed me to check out a few products without having to sign up for a trial. I think I have free trial fatigue. It also introduced me to a few new products.

Thanks, it's a work in progress that I enjoy iterating on.

We prefer to keep a low profile, but can say that our core product is a vertically targeted CMS that evolved out of a few years of custom projects and consulting.

That desk speaker is technically 50 hz and higher. I have not seen the monitor ever move. I try to keep levels low at close proximity. I also use Bose noise cancelling headphones most of the day. The left monitor height diff did annoy me at first. I adjusted the Win 7 monitor position setting to account for it, as well as the Everest background that spans the three monitors.
