Uses
Tools and useful things
Software
- VS Code / Cursor - no particular frills. It's what I'm used to! I use the Dracula theme
- Obsidian - best note taking app
- Descript - video recording and editing for interviews and screencasts
- Raycast - window manager, quick actions, ask AI, bookmarks
Photography
- Sony A7C - compact full-frame mirrorless camera, great for hiking. Main lens is the 24-70mm f/2.8 GMII
- Sony RX100M3 (I previously used the M4, but it got jammed with sand) - the best pocket camera line
- Peak Design - I use their camera clips, lens switcher and straps. I also have their Everyday Sling camera bag. All high quality, all super-useful for hiking, particularly the camera clips.
Running
- Brooks running shoes
- Osprey running backpack
- Garmin Forerunner 935 - it's not let me down, I wear it daily. I bought Garmin scales to go with it. Does multiple sports modes, including swimming.
Baby
- Cloth wipes (Cheeky Wipes, Little Gubbins) - at first I thought these would be gross, now I vastly prefer them to disposable wipes. Far more solid, far better at doing the job they are designed for. We started with Cheeky Wipes, which also include buckets, etc. Now I prefer the larger Cheeky Gubbins ones, and we bought a bigger cheap bucket for used wipes.
- Lumi White Noise Machine - a nice part of the bedtime routine, plays various noises, and white noise to help sleep. Portable, and with glowing lights.
- Milton Sterilising Fluid
