Actually when I write blogs I listen to music. So I dont think it matters a lot whether we are writing code or English. The songs and music just sort of goes in the background.
- fleischhauf 6y agoWhile that might be true, did you try to sing and write like the second paragraph suggests?
- ggambetta 6y agoInteresting, it's the opposite for me. I can write or code while listening to music without lyrics (especially electronic or classical), but whenever there are words in the music, it's like 100% of the language-processing part of my brain focuses on that, and I can't really focus on anything I try to read (or even worse, write).
- astrange 6y agoFor me I can handle it if the lyrics are in another language, even if it’s one I speak. It’s not activating the same words so it’s easier to tune it out, maybe.
