Ditto! I can also listen to a podcast or have a video playing in the background and still write code. Definitely can’t do that when trying to write English.

- lgessler 6y agoListening to music with lyrics is already hard for me when I'm writing code, but listening to a podcast is unthinkable--what kind of podcast? Don't you get distracted by the people talking?
- wvenable 6y agoI've tried to listen to podcasts while coding but when I'm in the zone I don't retain the content. I can't follow the podcast at all. Yet, like the OP here, I can also sing along with music and code at the same time.
- barrenko 6y agoMuch like the other comment - I can't really listen to music while learning to code, but if it's something I alredy know how to do then music sometimes seems to be helping.
- tasuki 6y agoI can't imagine anyone can actually listen to a podcast and actually program at the same time. Perhaps if the podcast is uninteresting and the programming is copy-pasting.
