Protip: put productive things on >both< monitors.
- coldtea 12y agoAnd now you're split between two productive things. More reason to procrastrinate. Better just have the productive thing you should be focused on one at a time up on a sigle monitor.
- WalterSear 12y agoUhm, if it's distracting you from that task at hand, instead of helping you complete it, it's not a productive thing. My code editor lives on one screen, usually with four files in veiw. My browser and console live on the other. It's really no different that one screen.
- enobrev 12y agoExactly right, communication tools should have no real estate if you're trying to focus. I keep three screens: one with multiple terminals, one with my code editor(s), and one for displaying whatever I'm coding (android emulator, browser, etc) as well as docs, research, etc. If I'm coding, all comms are off to avoid any distraction - specifically to avoid notifications. I'm I'm in support mode (flapping server, etc), comms are up, but they get a tiny slice of real estate next to my terminal with logs and such so we can triage and move on.
