A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

I work as a Programmer, so my laptop usually isn't far away when I need to take notes.

It's really just contract signitures and maybe the rare form, though almost anything can be done online these days.

Not just pens. Paperwork in general is fortunatly becoming obsolete. I haven't recieved anything important by physical mail in months and almost all invoices are now digitial.

Wow I'm a programmer too, and I can't imagine getting through an entire day without my notebook. It's how I organise my thoughts in the morning, and stay on task. It's also a really nice break from the screens every now and then

Yeah, digital task management or note taking has never worked well for me. It's best if I write things down, then fill out Jira or whatever

So you use a really nice keyboard, right? ...Right?

Internal macbook keyboard :(

Ok see that was one of my first guesses but I personally would still need to write notes at least for myself, plus doodling lol, so I ruled out any office jobs.

Clearly I was wrong haha
