| | Technical writing requires appropriate gear to be done in a way that's both healthy and productive. While it's true that communicating with subject-matter experts and writing documentation can be done on a tiny Chromebook, I would compare such an experience to driving all the way from Chicago to San Francisco on a BMW Isetta: feasible, though not very comfortable nor fast, and certainly not fun for your derrière.

| | There's a trend to share what equipment you use, mostly as a developer, collected at uses.tech. I find these pages a strange combination of fascinating and boring. Most of the pages are just a parade of new and expensive equipment, with no insight into why or how they appeared in the person's life. Anything we use is a compromise of utility, availability and price. With time, most of what you end up using is just...what you somehow ended up with. You grow used to the items, having become used to their quirks, and that's true of hardware and software. So what would a 'Uses' page I want to read look like? Hopefully something like this.
