People who work in tech have usually optimized their environment in a way that is invisible to outsiders but very deliberate. The monitor is at a specific height. The keyboard is a specific kind. The headphones are not the ones that came with the phone. They have a terminal preference and a text editor preference and if you asked them why they would tell you in more detail than you asked for, because this is a domain where the details matter and they have discovered this through experience. They spend more hours at a screen than almost anyone else they know, which means the marginal improvement from a piece of good gear is multiplied across a lot of time. The gift for them is something that belongs in that world — an upgrade to the setup, something that makes the long hours more comfortable, or the one thing they have been meaning to get but have not justified to themselves yet.
