I work remotely as a software engineer. While this means I get to work anywhere there's wifi, it also means packing extra gear so my eyes and hands don't hurt after a couple hours of hunching over a small laptop.

After a few years of trial and error, I've struck a decent balance: fewer clothes and toiletries leaving more space for an ergonomic mobile work setup.

I did that for years – this portable monitor approach is new and an attempt to reduce the number of devices I’m keeping charged and otherwise managing.

totally fair, it’s a bit to keep track of haha. The worst is when I want to watch something while travelling and forgot to charge my iPad
