Uses

This is rough list of the products I use daily as a software engineer. Check out uses.tech for a list of other people's /uses pages!

There was a time in my early 20's when I used to enjoy building my own desktop and OS from scratch. I still enjoy tinkering with new tech but I depend on a simple setup so that I can focus more on my work.
