I don't think pomodoro is appropriate for all work. Quite a lot of work really wants a 3-4 hour long session (after which I need to eat and move around a little, or I'd stretch it longer). But for some things a 15-20 minute pomodoro session is perfect.
(For physical tasks I use podcasts, like pryelluw's Netflix technique. Bonus points if there's a podcast whose release schedule matches how often I have to do a particular task.)
- medstrom 6y agoThing is, I see 8x25 minute pomodoros as one "uninterrupted" 4-hour work session. The little 5 minutes of rest does not need to get you out of flow, just spend it in a non-stimulating way. Don't go on HN.
