My tools changed quite a bit this year. I am using:
emacs
textmate2
R
python / pandas
jupyter notebooks (python, R, julia kernels)
c++
Clojure
Common Lisp
linux on the server
os x on my laptop
ipad / prompt2 / pythonista / bluetooth keyboard
Almost all of my serious work is being done in either R or python right now, which is a big change from using more proprietary tools like SAS, Stata, and Matlab.
I think I might have been the last person on the planet to figure out that an iPad with a bluetooth keyboard in a coffee shop or library is a very productive work setup and that I do not need to lug my laptop everywhere.
We are living in a fantastic era and I just cannot believe the amazing free tools that are available for things like network analysis (NetworkX) and spatial visualization (ggmap).
