Deep Hacking Mode Explained
We can't idle, we can't sit down and listen , we can't stay awake in meetings ,
and the worst part of all, once we are sitting behind our laptops, the rest of the world doesn't exist anymore
Guess what.. there are even explanations for this behaviour
The typical geek trains their brain to be heavily focused while multitasking day after day. Is it surprising that this same brain does not do well when forced to isolate down to one task? Listening in a meeting is a very isolated, very passive event. Coding, developing, debugging these are not passive at all. The geek brain is just not trained to sit quietly and listen.
Now the next question is, do we want to be cured ? :)
