Oh my god you people can't enjoy anything. It's just cool workspace inspiration and a place for people to share their setups, can't we just take it for what it is?
First and foremost: HN thrives on intellectual curiosity and discussion so keep that in mind; it's actually a good skill to be critical else we end up going down the road of "who cares about privacy and physical ownership".
I enjoy cool workspace inspiration so I'm leaning closer to your side but the critical discussion has merit in the fact that we end up with "slop" if nobody is bringing anything new to the table (yay I made a pun).
"Cancer killing /b/" and all that. If we spend too much time with kin we become closed off to cool ideas or better ways of advancing us all.
