I don't solder at my bench. I just prototype there. I solder on the kitchen table where it's more solid and I have more room.

Congratulations! 
You've just reminded me that the desk I'm using was the first piece of furniture I ever bought - in 1982. If I hadn't just spent $750 on a new water heater being delivered today, I'd go desk shopping!

Then I read the subject again. I cannot comment, as that breaks the KSS rule.
So, "furniture" eh?

That one is hard to Google.

Ok everyone.
Get your minds OUT OF THE GUTTER!!
You're blocking the view through my periscope.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

In case you're interested, I received (last week) the PCBs I designed, did some soldering and procrastinating and coding, and now I have a working prototype. Of course I made some mistakes, but they did not prevent the thing from working. Had to give some 4-leg buttons a leg amputation (I accidentally shorted the output to ground through the pin on the other side, I also remember expressly not doing that but I think I then messed it up in a circuit-refactoring), and the rotary encoders are more glitchy than expected (the input filtering of STM32 timers in encoder mode is not sufficient).
Overall I'd say STM32 is pretty nice, but CubeIDE (based on Eclipse) is (like Eclipse) not nice, merely "OK". Laggy as Elephant, and I managed to glitch out the code renderer just by putting a medium-length array initializer on one line (less than 1000 elements, come on), resulting in a largely blacked-out code window. At least it has a proper debugger, it's not the "debugging means printf over serial" stone age, and I don't need to upload the firmware manually. Also the built-in initialization code generator is handy.
Seeing the hardware that I designed come alive was nice.
8/10 would recommend overall, but I wish the IDE wasn't based on Eclipse.

I'm glad you've had better luck with the STM32 ecosystem than I did. I have two STM32 boards I don't have any desire to try to make work anymore but I don't have the heart to throw them out either.
Cube IDE was enough to make me want to pass it up. If I can't do it in platformIO without a bunch of extra crap I don't want to mess with that workflow.

Too bad you didn’t buy some storage. You could have become the Prime Minister of Sweden!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

Just the fact he had anything to say about the problem - instead of looing with blank eyes, earns him a 5!!!

At 4 he already knows none of these superheroes, animated characters exist. He knows Santa is not real either. I am just scared he does not ruin Christmas for some other child. At 2, I was trying to make him recognize Michio Kaku and Jay Z. I am raising a...no idea what.
