Arch Linux privately. CentOS 7 for work.

Toolchain: private; clang + gold linker. For work; GCC + gold linker. Emacs as editor/IDE in both cases. Privately i use Scons as my build tool, at work we use CMake. Debugger == gdb. As for languages, I do 98% C++, 2% C.

Win 8.1, Arch Linux in VMWare Workstation. I mostly use the Linux in VMWare, Windows is mostly for Excel and Photoshop.

Hardware is Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 12".

Dev tools are vim + tmux + zsh, PHP + nginx for work and Clang + CMake for personal projects.

Primary is win 8 and IntelliJ IDEA, secondary is FreeBSD on a number of servers. There is work and personal under both.

Archlinux at home on my desktop (custom build, a bit old), with Emacs + Ensime for Scala dev, with the usual suspects: sbt, Scala 2.11.x, Play. A Raspberry Pi B w/ Archlinux. I tried to play with Scala on it but it's a bit too limited. I use it for private repos and a bit of Go coding occasionnaly (with Emacs + tramp or vim over SSH.)

OS X 10.10 on a 2014 MacBook Pro w/ Intellij at work (I hate this damn OS) and a dozen AWS instances running Ubuntu IIRC.
