Years ago I was part of a cross-disciplinary group doing game development.

After our standup in the morning, the graphics artists would have made tons of drawings on the paper table cloth. If they had access to a pen and paper, they would be drawing.

Not often, and not recommended, but I have coded on the cockpit table while single-handing a sailboat. Interrupting a conference call with “sorry, one moment, I have to tack out of the fleet” is its own special joy.

I used to regularly do work on my laptop on the subway, and then the PATH, after I moved to NJ. You don't see a whole lot of people doing it but it's very doable. I tether to get online via my phone.

I don't understand how this is possible. I've heard the New York Subway system is riddled with antisocial behaviour, homeless, drunks, people pissing everywhere, etc.

> Between work, meetups, and social events, I have noticeably less time for side projects than I had before moving here.

Lucky you. :) Good problem to have.

I do leetcode in the browser on my phone sometimes lol. It's far from ideal, but most of the work is thinking rather than typing.

>Currently I am working on affixing a split keyboard to my pants, so that I can program while standing up.

This has to be satire.

With some noise cancelling headphones, it may actually help with focus. I'm a fan of doing things on the subway.

I do my best thinking on the bus.

Does anyone make a mobile cursor that can be remotely controlled? Like, I can keep tapping (tab, tab, tab), and it will automatically switch and zoom to the next window.
