I guess I consider it part of my Job to be there and answer questions, assist other developers, etc.
(Also please do not slack me when you're sitting right next to me, it's like, more disruptive and annoying than just talking to me. But mostly just use Email, please.)
- MattGaiser 5y agoI am fine with that, just not immediately that second. And do you enable Slack notifications? I don't. I just look for the glow of the icon.
- uxp100 5y agoI do, though it’s not just that, it’s also the read and typing notifications and stuff I don’t like. Disabling it would make it more tolerable though. However, there really are things I want someone to have the ability to notify immediately for. Narrow time slots on in demand hardware like prototypes or FPGAs, change of team location in a lunch room or a big lab, and drop what you’re doing and debug this when it makes sense. Maybe I just don’t focus as deep as others.
- BeetleB 5y ago> (Also please do not slack me when you're sitting right next to me, it's like, more disruptive and annoying than just talking to me. But mostly just use Email, please.) I was about to say the same. Slack disruptions are often worse than in person interruptions. Email isn't.
