The headline, at least in my head, reads as "being less distracted leads to more productive workdays".

Mind-blowing discovery.




Do you remember the first time you saw a headline that was basically that?

1997, I'm riding BART to SF, like 20/yr old, reading a similar article in this rag called Wired.

Wasn't it about Slack last year tho?


I check my email once (or zero times) a day, slack 2 or 3 times.

People bug me about not getting their emails occasionally, but I'm busy actually getting shit done.

My team knows if it's important, than can just interrupt me. We all work right next to each other -- open office -- it's not a big deal.

I don't know how anyone could get a lot of work done, while responding to dozens of messages and emails promptly. That's a full time job in and of itself.
