Programmers chat =D

[kris_hole]

So i was just sat here, doing a few things on kryce and i wondered what other peoples preferences for programming are.

When i work i like to have a small tumbler of whiskey with a few rocks of ice in it to sip at, Skull candy head phones on with andy mckee on shuffle. It's quite a relaxing mood. I jsut find programming more enjoyable when relaxed :P

What about you lot?

[VitinhooxD]

Evil likes to tell me everything he is doing when programming every single issue xD

We also put the programmings into a dropbox folder so we can see all the updates quickly.

[Aldur]

I always turn on the radio when I start programming

Listening to music, thats about it. Maybe chatting with some people.

[kris_hole]

And sounds like a good chill session marsh :)

Man, if you dont have it already get dual monitors. Sooo damn handy to have the server source on one screen and the client source on the other.

[Robin]

Dual monitors, glass of wine and sat chatting to Fabio usually. Oooh how much we get up to in the early hours of the morning,

[Ruins of Hell]

Command prompt semi-transparent/always on top at bottom right, usually multitasking on the forums/a game to relax. Food and drinks on my right, reference books on my left.

[Alatar]

Hmmm… usually quiet, or with the radio on. Always with some drink at a hand and with my cat usually sleeping over half of my keyboard or the printer.

MacBook Pro running Virtualbox running Windows XP running TeamViewer.
I'll be in school, sitting in the bathroom on my iPhone running Teamviewer.

Sincerely,
Rithy

Programming on a iphone would be the most brutal experience ever. I hope i have never have to do that.

i ssh into my laptop when im on the bus on my droid. its horrible.

[Rithy58]

I tried that before. I brought in a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard and CS5 to DESIGN CLASS because the Power Mac G5 running Tiger and Photoshop CS2 suck. And guess what happen. They took my MacBook Pro and told me the school policy prohibited the use of Computer. American School are stupid.

Then later on, I brought in an iPad to take notes instead of writing it in my notebook and they took it again and say "No Electronic Devices are allowed"

I got those stuff back a day after when my parents came to school. So now, I'm stuck with going to bathroom to use my iPhone.

Sincerely,
Rithy

@Zetta:

fix'd.

[Marsh]

Thats wierd, they were almost encouraged where i went.

[Godlord]

Eh, let's see usually have a nice cup of tea and some red wine. Usually listening to both my phone's earplugs and my computer's headphone to all kinds of music, sometimes the radio (local radios like Studio Brussels, Radio 538, etc. but also BBC Radio 1). I am also usually talking with people using Skype and MSN (via Pidgin or WLM 2011). Generally have a dual monitor setup with one monitor for socialising (e.g. MSN, Skype, Facebook) and the other for programming (e.g. shells, emulators, utilities, editors). Have my phone at hand to make photos of the results I get from tests I do at real hardware. As for breaks, I usually take some to get food, play a game, etc. That's basically it as for how programming rolls in my case.

Regards,
  Stephan.

Dreamweaver and Steam or Eclipse and Pidgin open if I'm on Window or Linux respictively. Then I'll probably have a mug of freshly ground coffee to keep going through 'till about 6 in the morning. Can't forget Winamp or last.fm either.

When I need a break I'll crack open Minecraft or go to the dangerous world known to most as 'outside'.
