How would you suggest dealing with shared passwords? I would rather have a much better solution than having a vault in a closed source app (even though it promises encryption) on Dropbox which pretty much have to release information to for example NSA if I'm not mistaken. It's by far the easiest solution I've found but would very much want a more secure and more private solution.

I completely agree! And I hope I got that across in my post (but perhaps not?), that it all comes down to finding the ways that work for you. Since all in all, switching to a remote job is about finding your own way, or at least it was for me.

Yes and no for my part, I have different places for different kind of work I do like I wrote in my post. Desk = coding, dining table = writing. It works for me but will probably not work for everyone.

When working with a team or simply more people than yourself, then yes!

I'm a 27 year old full stack PHP developer.

1) Totally self taught, mostly using the internet only. But at my current level I often read books. 2) Started with HTML when I was 13, ASP at 15 and switched to PHP at 16. 3) When I was 20

I've spent hours trying to get powerline to work with the patched fonts on OSX and Macvim without any results. This is lightweight, simple and just worked out of the box. Also the light theme is amazing. THANK YOU!
