My view- put the work down and take a darn walk.

This is not the behavior of a man in balance, or someone who is truly "here".

That is a long articld, what exactly do you mean?

I mean, he certainly does not seem in balance, because he is very full of himself. But his working setup is interesting.

I mean his working setup is not interesting, and not even the basic standard.

For $500 on amazon one can get a decent sit stand desk (not the thing that sets on a desk, that's not nearly as ergonomic), a under desk treadmill or stair stepper, several monitors and a stand. It would be better than his setup.

To me, this blog post is a microcosm of his broader work.
