Nice flex, but not everyone has this kind of setup.
- magpi3 5y agoA decent size table, natural lighting and room to pace is a flex?
- jachee 5y agoYou skipped "overlooking the city".
- burntoutfire 5y agoIn post-communist countries in Europe millions of people live in soviet-style tall residential buildings (typically 7-20 stories high), a nice view of the city is not a luxury there (like I guess it is in the US?).
- jjeaff 5y agoCompletely depends on which city.

- Aeolun 5y ago> my small plastic table, looking out on the blank concrete wall of the building next door, some fading indirect light filtering in, the ability to turn around and take a whole step back before bumping into my cabinet to take a break Sounds more reasonable for Tokyo and I imagine, HK or Singapore.
- distantaidenn 5y agoCentral Tokyo maybe. Tokyo is huge and on the outskirts you can get some nice places with a view. I personally just moved a bit outside of Tokyo to a house on a hill. Often working from the roof and enjoying the sunset. Aside from that, this post is about to make me buy an Oculus.
- Aeolun 5y agoOf course I was exaggerating for effect, but it’s certainly possible.
- Quiark 5y agoJapan is nowhere as bad as Hong Kong or Singapore space-wise. Hong Kong people have mastered the ability to self-traffic control in the one-person wide aisles of supermarkets, to give you some idea.
