Ha, years ago I was at a girlfriends house while she went out to dinner with an old friend to catch up.
She called me at the end of her dinner on the way back home and said "what are you doing" and I said "Watching cheese making videos on youtube"
She didnt believe me... she came into the room, I was sitting there still watching cheese making videos and she laughed and thought it was super funny.
Yes, I was literally just binging cheese videos on youtube.
Thanks for the suggestions, and last year I dedicated a six month trial to using those "separate-window" implementations in Chrome, but I'm very sorry to say they remained clumsy.
I group my work into topics by desktop; one browser instance per desktop, with an average total of 200+ tabs across eight windows. Restarting Firefox means sorting eight browser instances, one hotkey to snap them to half-width. Restarting Chrome required sorting sixteen browser windows, then manually aligning each primary window plus its tab window using the mouse. I tried, I really did, but that never became less of a pain.
It's similar in that you can go from a idea to concept to finished piece in a weekend while also providing something tangible - unlike code.
There is just nothing more satisfying than touching your project after it's done.
The best thing is: you even do sports, that is, if you don't use a lot of power tools. Forget the planing with the jointer and use the hand planer :)
Ask me for details if you'd like yo hear more.
