Went from Hyprland to Gnome to Sway, and I think I'll stay. I really like the retro GTK theme, but it does not work well with GTK4/libadwaita. So I gotta put in some more work (or avoid those apps :). I also seem to move away from having a uniform theme for everything and just embracing the chaos

Here's some more things being productive (or pretending to be):

That's very interesting, thanks for the insight! Personally I could never fathom how small groups of hobby hackers (e.g. Krikzz) could create and mass-manufacture custom PCBs just like that. But then again, I have no experience in that field.

You don’t end up doing the fun things (designing circuits and layouting) and most of your time is spent with documentation, meetings, and reading and following technical standards

This holds true to so many professions, unfortunately

Designing PCBs is typically decoupled from manufacturing. And once you get a feeling for it, modern PCB design is like playing Legos, as you just pick and connect a lot of different ICs together (unless you're doing some very specialized analogue stuff).
