Ask HN: What do you keep at/on/in your desk?
I'm curious what sort of things people keep at their desks. It can be art, books, yo-yo's, drinks, etc.

What is so special about that notebook?
I went on a small search to find the best notebook and thats where I ended up.
The features I wanted:
1. It had to be able to serve as a mouse pad 2. It needed to be wire bound on the side so that it could lay flat 3. It had to be thick enough but not too thick(subjective)
It took me many months and probably 2 dozen notebooks to arrive at this one.

Nothing; I live the hell that is permanent hot-desking :(
I am in the same situation. You have my sympathy.
The desks here have docking stations, but because I am a contractor I don't receive the same laptop as FTEs. Of course, it isn't compatible with the docks, and so I can't just "sit down and work" as everyone else. I have to find a power outlet which isn't always available. And if I am feeling ambitious, disconnect everything from the dock and plug it into my laptop.
Who's idea was it to have open hoteling space for desks :|

3 things: my laptop, a plain cork coaster for my coffee mug, and a little pomodoro style ticking timer.
The timer is shaped like a chicken — I think I got it in the kitchen section a few years ago — but I'd like to find something simpler / more aesthetically designed. Timeboxing is really important to my dev work especially as a contractor.
My desk is a simple tabletop with no drawers or cabinets.

A Qi charger stand, three routers (matchbox sized) I tinker with, keyboard, monitor, mouse, laptop, USB hub.
Nothing other than my monitor keyboard and mouse.
I set a goal of cleaning off my desk every night before I stop working.

Three monitors, macbook docking station, a Super Nintendo hooked up to an old Sony CRT, Cisco VoIP phone, some books, sake.
A laptop, pen, and notebook for writing.
