I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
The right balance between isolation and connection.
I want to be on my own, but able to contact others if I need to (or if they need me) in a way that doesn't interrupt anyone's flow.
That translates to working from home (or having my own office), keeping my own hours whenever possible and having good tools for conferencing/screen-sharing.
A good music/entertainment system.
Anything from decent headphones and a collection of music to a TV or dedicated monitor for backgrounding something comfortable that doesn't require too much brainpower, like episodes of things I've watched loads of times before (Columbo and the 70's version of The Incredible Hulk are currently my jam).
Well-stocked kitchen
I don't want to run out of coffee or be thinking about where I could go to get lunch.
In fact, my ideal working environments would be the bunker from Lost, the compound from Archive 81 or perhaps the Overlook Hotel from The Shining.

Very interesting i might copy some of it :D
These are almost exactly my requirements too... interesting! But this bunker I found ain't big enough for both of us...
Fight me for it!
