I saw that the OP already replied, but wanted to share how I approach this myself. I have a desktop, laptop, and phone that I wanted to keep synced up, so I actually used it as an excuse to setup my own git repo on my NAS (which I wanted to do anyway).
The only tricky part has been dealing with git on iOS. I have to use a particular app (Working Copy) and some shortcuts to get the syncing behavior consistent. But it is doable!
I love this question-- my "normal" view is a circle with December on the right (3 o'clock), and the year going counter-clockwise. I have some vague memory of a calendar laid out in this way, and it's colored my mental image ever since.
Another cool thing I've noticed is that my visual perspective of the year shifts with the year. During the first quarter, I view the circle from outside the Q1 portion of the ring with the distinct understanding that I'm viewing it "upside down". And as the months go by, so does my position in the circle and my perspective on the rest of the year.
To add on to this, when I think about a situation where you're trying to hedge against all government-backed fiat collapsing; I feel like you're already down to cold-hard bartering. The saying of "booze, bullets, and bandages" comes to mind.
I was really surprised at how much more comfortable my wooden wrist rest is. As another user pointed out, getting the elevation all I needed. Definitely one of my favorite upgrades to my setup (and definitely easier to keep clean).
Although I realize people don't take unsolicited advice, I would still suggest you try it with a nice memory foam wrist rest at some time. adjust the level.
I can type for hours and hours this way. It also makes a nice elbow rest (although you also shouldn't lean on your elbows for hours, can affect your bursa)
I've been doing something similar, leveraging a Stream Deck Mini and a handful of self-written python scripts to handle my Hue bulbs, Nanoleaf, and a smart plug running an air purifier. I also have a very nice Max Falcon-20 macropad, but I liked the ease of changing the virtual keycaps on the Stream Deck for prototyping.
All-in-all, it's a fun automation experiment for those of us who are WFH to automate things we do everyday, such as start up and shut down our spaces.
Throwing out a resource that helped me build my own website to host my resume (and led me to get an Azure Fundamentals cert)-- the Cloud Resume Challenge, which has been seen on HN in the past. (https://cloudresumechallenge.dev/)
Has been a huge help to me since I don't directly work with cloud resources like AWS or Azure in my current IT role.
I saw an interesting video from Kirsten Dirksen this past week taking a look at a company trying to tackle this with the drop-in ADU approach. That was the first I had heard about the rule changes in California about unblockable building additions to try and tackle the housing issues. Presented without particular knowledge or endorsement of what the company is saying (they obviously have a vested interest in their solution to the housing crisis).
> Many people assume that as a bike rider they have rights and as a result they should be respected by cars.
While I am not a bike rider, I am a proponent of defensive driving, which has the same principle: the laws of physics don't really care who has right-of-way.

Yeah. The graveyards have plenty of drivers/riders who had right-of-way.
I've always used the terms "lens" or "worldview" to describe that starting point, and I think the most fruitful conversations with people I don't agree with usually stem around understanding that we do our personal calculus differently, and that doesn't make them a terrible human being. We both certainly believe that we have the correct view (or we wouldn't hold it), we're not diminishing that there is a reality where one of us is likely correct and the other is wrong, but that we don't have all of the information to say that someone is being willfully ignorant, as other replies have stated.
A more rigorous version of this can be found in the book, Conflict of Visions by Thomas Sowell. What you're calling a lens or worldview, he calls a "vision". He precisely defines two visions that are at opposite ends of an axis and which differ only in a single assumption: an intuition about the span of human nature. He then proceeds to show how this single intuition leads by logical extrapolation when combined with unambiguous facts to lead people to opposing policy preferences.
It's really a very powerful analysis, because it's Occam's Razor compliant. The theory is simple yet has great explanatory power.
