Coffee shops force you do work and nothing else. The shop's shared WIFI is overloaded so slacking off on the web is unrewarding. Videos are dog slow, social sites have long wait for refresh, the high ping in online games makes other players hate you. You can't walk off easily to watch TV. You can't slack off by going to kitchen to grab some food. You can't have a comfortable phone call because it's loud. You can't even slack off to have a long bathroom break, for fear of someone grabbing your laptop. You don't have interruption from colleagues, meetings, or phone calls as in the office. The "rent" is unbeatable, $1.50 for couple hours of desk space, janitorial service, power, and WIFI. And you got the constant caffeine boost to keep you going. Just put on the headphones and blast away at the codes.
