ā€˛Programmers are procrastinators. Get in, get some coffee, check the mailbox, read the RSS feeds, read the news, check out latest articles on techie websites, browse through political discussions on the designated sections of the programming forums. Rinse and repeat to make sure nothing is missed. Go to lunch. Come back, stare at the IDE for a few minutes. Check the mailbox. Get some coffee. Before you know it, the day is over"
oh so true. actually a rather apt description of how I've worked for years - and still managed to output a lot of valuable software. I wonder what would happen if I were 100% effective.
