This page is for “MacBook Pro” - my primary development and productivity machine.

Commentary

I’ve been using MacBooks since the MacBook Pro 2012 edition, evolving through multiple generations including MacBook 2015, the last Intel MacBook Pro, and currently the M4 MacBook Pro. This progression has given me extensive experience with both Intel and Apple Silicon architectures.

Current Setup: The M4 MacBook Pro serves as my primary development and productivity machine, offering excellent performance for virtualization, development work, and creative tasks.

Tools of Trade: My workflow is built around specific tools that enhance productivity and security, including Amphetamine for always-on display, multiple virtualization solutions, and browser isolation techniques for enhanced security.
