Forgot where I read it, but one of my favorite quotes on multi tasking is:
"You're not really multitasking, you're just screwing up multiple things at the same time"
I do however feel a great sense of accomplishment whenever I have several browser windows open while I work though. :|

I can easily have 10 tabs open and swap between them while mono-tasking. E.g — ignoring for a moment the fact I'm writing on HN... — right now I have 4 tabs open on Sentry, where I'm comparing stack traces for a couple of instances of two related errors. I have another tab on the relevant PR, and a few more with docs pages for the relevant APIs/libraries. Swapping between these things isn't multitasking, it's just managing the complexity of the one single task.
