- notepad++
- once upon a time, I used to write code in notepad when people used programs like Visual Studio. I refused to do that and my only major upgrade was to notepad++ but I still have a habit of firing open notepad to write something i think of. There is something good about a simple clean open box to write things in. Windows should allow this where i type in an empty space and it just stores what i type in a new file

- Focus booster
- Helps me work productively by doing 25 minute 'focus boosts' of work followed by 5 minute breaks. It's essentially a simple timer but it is the difference between getting things done in a day that could take 3 days

This is not my laptop (which I'm currently wiping and restoring) but I've set this one up in a similar way to my usual interface using 'fences' and my standard set of apps.
