That picture of past you... what is going on? On the table I see the following beverages: wine, liquor, coffee, water. There's also a cheese grater. And what looks to be a bottle of pills. Okay. Now on the window sill behind you is ... I don't even know, coffee, a cleaning product, some napkins maybe, another wine bottle and other sundry items.

This looks like maybe a table shoved into the corner of a tiny restaurant, away from the main area.

Apparently it's night time.

I guess it's as good a place to write code as any other. :-)



From a past update:

"I launched the site in July 9, 2009 from a small kitchen in Botoșani, Romania."

I suspect that's the kitchen :) My own kitchen table during this confinement period isn't too dissimilar...


Yeah, that's my Romanian kitchen. The bottles are Transnistrian cognac, local red wine, and the empty glass that looks like a cooling tower is a Turkish tea glass. These are the rocket fuels that built Pinboard.

The white bottle is just Greek table salt, though. No fun pills.
