Who are you, and what do you do?

My name is Scott Wallace and I'm a hacker at heart. This means that I love technology and messing about with it until it does what I want it to -- not the other way around. I'm a "contracting IT Systems Engineer". I like to think that I specialise in automation but it's really just scripting myself out of work. I'm essentially a mercenary and will work for the highest bidder. My main area of expertise lies around the Internet and web technologies.

What hardware are you using?

The only devices which go with me everywhere are, of course, my mobile phone (a OnePlus 3), my keys in an Orbitkey, my Ridge wallet, a Leatherman Squirt PS4 and my Garmin Fēnix 3 HR.

My everyday computer is a mid-2016 13" Macbook Pro Retina and, when working from home, I use a late 2009 iMac 27" with an Apple Magic Trackpad.

I also have an Nvidia Shield Tablet which is good for reading eBooks, perusing the web and generally chilling out (Reddit!).

When travelling, to ensure I have Internet connectivity, I carry a Huawei E5331 portable WiFi device with a local data SIM thrown in the back. So far it seems reliable and very unobtrusive. To reduce the amount of charging equipment required I also take an EC Technology 8-Port 60W 12A USB Charger with me.

Any and all of this is slung over my back in a 5.11 Rush 12 backpack.

For media consumption I have a Roku 3 hooked up to a 40" Samsung Series 8 LED TV. All the media is loaded onto a Netgear ReadyNAS Ultra-4 with enough space to last well into the future. To control the TV and the Roku I use the awesome Logitech Harmony 600 universal remote. I cannot recommend these remotes enough. The living room also houses a Sonos Play:5 for streaming music and Sonos Play:1s in the dining room and kitchen.

For getting to and from work I ride a Rose Pro DX Cross-3000 bike. It runs with a Nite Rider Lumina Micro 250 & Solar rear light set and I chose the Hiplok V150 to lock it up on casual rides.

And what software?

All the Macs run El Capitan and content is kept in sync with Google Drive and Resilio (aka BitTorrent Sync) for the more sensitive stuff. Software installation is scripted which makes setting up new installation a cinch. I always have an instance of iTerm2 v3, enhanced with HomeBrew, running and work wouldn't be the same without HipChat or Hangouts (and VirtualBox for any Windows nonsense). Alfred 2 replaces Spotlight and enables clipboard history -- as well as a host of other functionality (it's great for those who love keyboard shortcuts). f.lux is a must-have for those who have trouble falling asleep at night.

Photos taken on the phone are automatically uploaded to Google Photos and SmugMug, which is where all my photos are stored, via their Android app.
