My neck wishes this weren’t so true.
And my back
And my axe
Legend. We have the same shoes and socks. I’m not sexy enough for white pants though, i might need to create a language or two before I can do that.
It was the 90s… rules were different then ! I still have my white pants deep in the closet somewhere… they haven’t seen the light of day in a while though :)
I worked at Bell Labs back when this photo was taken - my office pretty much looked exactly like this, chair, furniture, Sun SPARCStation on the floor…
Bjarne still rocks white pants sometimes to this day though ! And the same haircut - he really committed to the look :)
How is there not a thin sheen of Cheeto dust or kebab juice over any of that. What kind of madman is this?
A man of culture. One of it’s kind
I stand most of the time. I have a wobble board which helps - standing in one place isn’t possible. I’ve been interested in a treadmill for a while, but they make it hard to do anything else and sometimes I want to sit or lean back.
To be pedantic, that isn’t even right or wrong posture at a computer. The cat one isn’t wrong either.
What they tell you at the big big studios where they have ergonomist and fancy massages, is to change your posture often. Any one posture for a long time is bad, even straight (albeit one that causes the less stress in a given moment).
Change posture, but also get up and move around. Take breaks away from the screen to let your eyes rest.
Of course doing this can also mess up the flow of ideas sometimes. Nothing worse than coming back and trying to recapture the zone you were in.
And please don’t confuse straight with upright. Once you start measuring with a straightedge you’ve lost the plot, what you’re rather looking for is minimising the sum of squares of muscle tension differences (because tensegrity)… even of the muscles you’re not aware of. That’s why it’s utterly, utterly unlikely that you’ll ever get good posture by means of holding any position. Exercise fostering good movement patterns (and with that solid mobility) is the way to do it, look into the direction of callisthenics, internal martial arts, suchlike. Things that are whole movement systems. If in doubt go swimming: Because it’s weightless it’s pretty much impossible to make anything worse because there’s really no way to do it wrong. Short of drowning.
Not no more I don’t, get a stool it will save your back, I’m serious.
I’m having luck with floor sitting as well, though that’s might not work as well if you’re stuck in an office.
My neck, my back, and weirdly my right knee, are fucking pissed at me today. My penis and crack are good though at least.
Get ur cams out my office.
