127. Wacom Tablet from lara's hype eng vol. H. Web player, likes, and session sync: https://lare.m-d-r-n.com/play/127 Telegram post: https://telegram.me/lara_just_in_case/217 Lyrics: [Verse 1] A month to learn touch-typing in Russian, some program, some year, doesn't matter now. Five years ago, Paris, French keyboard layout, my laptop shut, plugged into the monitor. English work, wrong keys — I just went blind and figured it out in a couple of days. But keyboard-only navigation in coding mode — terminal, IDE, browser, a hundred tabs, notebook cells, multicursors, command history — I'll probably get there right around retirement. [Chorus] IA background, that's what it is. Used to draw wireframes by hand, now it's this. They look at the tablet, look at the screen, look at the tablet — what is that thing? IA background, that's what it is. They nod like I need sympathy and leave. Maybe I should just put the tablet away and finally start moving faster. [Verse 2] I know that lab director in Nizhnevartovsk, immuno-analyzer mouse hits the table edge — she panics. I used to judge that. Now I have a Wacom plugged into VSCode and colleagues stop and stare at all my windows like I'm running air traffic control from here. [Chorus] IA background, that's what it is. Used to draw wireframes by hand, now it's this. They look at the tablet, look at the screen, look at the tablet — what is that thing? IA background, that's what it is. They nod like I need sympathy and leave. Maybe I should just put the tablet away and finally start moving faster. [Outro] Hundred-and-five-hundred windows open. Laptop closed but running. This helped. And now I just use it instead of a mouse. Maybe I should put it away. Maybe I should put it away.
