* to be fair these things go in waves, i'd been working on most of these for a few days and they seem to all get to ship-quality in conductor sessions simultaneously
Biggest life unlock: treadmill desk
Got up at 5am, walked 4 miles, and merged 13 PRs to main before making breakfast for the kids and getting them to school!
@garrytan All voice control? Or some other walking-friendly input method?

@garrytan @trevin built a treadmill cli after printing a @ppressdev Bluetooth har sniffer last week for the one he uses! Walkingpad https://printingpress.dev/library/devices/walkingpad
@garrytan Which one did you get
@garrytan 13 PRs before the school run is genuinely wild. walking pace is weirdly good for code review focus, keeps you in that light attention zone
@garrytan Alright this actually sounds solid, im in, ordering mini threadmill asap!
@garrytan walking desk people are always one software update away from becoming hamsters
@annaeremburg Ah yeah, lmao
@p_chip1 can't drop PR's from the bench... yet... hmm gives me an idea
@garrytan how do u context switch from a trivial rename pr to a complex state recovery pr in minutes?
does your review bar stay the same for both while u go?
@garrytan Same here! Just set up a laptop stand on my treadmill too. It’s been a game changer.
@garrytan how did you get PR reviews so fast?
@garrytan Treadmill desk sounds like a menace, but 13 PRs before breakfast is nuts.
