And then I finally found this keyboard and I just went like,

angels of singing where have you been my whole life we spent as programmers so much of our time interacting with those keys it really kind of matters in a way i didn't fully appreciate i used to defend the apple magic keyboard like it's it's great it's actually a great keyboard and i think for what it is this ultra low profile ultra low travel it's actually a really nice keyboard but once you've tried a longer travel mechanical keyboard there's no going back

It's worth investing in.

That's exactly right.

And I actually do regret that a little bit, especially with this damn keyboard.

I could have been listening to these beautiful, talky keys for years and years.

But sometimes you have to get really pissed off before you open your eyes and see that something else exists.

I feel the same way about Linux.

So I've been using Linux on the server since 2012.

late 90s, probably, we ran servers on Linux back then.

I never seriously considered it as a desktop option.

I never ran Linux before directly myself.

I always thought, do you know what?

I just, I want to focus on programming.

I don't have time for all these configuration files and all this setup bullshit and whatnot.

And Apple is close enough.

It's built on Unix underpinnings.

Why do I need to bother with Linux?

And again, it was one of those things.

I needed to try new things.
