trying to focus while coding (impossible)

2:13 "sin" waves vs "straight" waves—damn, didn't realize StackOverflow was so overrun with Evangelicals.

[shadergz]

me watching this: just one more video before i return to my side project

[jiinkC]

On my work computer I had to make myself set a uBlock Origin filter to remove the hot network questions on stack overflow. But if I end up on electronics, super user, web dev stack exchange etc, I'm screwed.

The universe doesn't want you to know the last 6 digits of pi

[RokeJulianLockhart.souq]

That exact stack overflow law question in the thumbnail about SCOUTS was what sent me into a rabbit hole today.

[carlesdixon]

I can only imagine the number of man hours "Hot Network Questions" has cost companies

[G-u-z-i-o]

Happens to me on Wikipedia. All the freaking time.

[stardust-reverie]

having a q&a site mostly used by people to work that also has an entire web element dedicated to showing you random entirely unrelated questions from other forums to try and distract you is definitely one of the design decisions ever

I am NixOS user right now. It all started 3 years ago with an effort to find the best system for working as a game developer. Relatable I guess

[lolbird_]

this is why i block that whole sidebar with ublock, i dont get anything done otherwise, they absolutely have that there on purpose
(until i go to one of the stack exchanges that i didnt block it on and get distracted anyways)

[voxlinou]

i was not ready for that 1983 google home page

[heh]

Didn't have to call us out like that 💀

[HatsuSixty]

me right now:
(i was supposed to be working on a project)

[francescovennari]

I've never related this much to something

[smiles-channel]

Good to know I'm not the only one who does this

[barrettkepler]

Finally. After all those years. We know last 6 digits of Pi.

[FranLegon]

Of course I'm watching this while programming

[lmnk]

Me every time I want to check sth on Wikipedia really quick:

[wlockuz]

Me: I'll add an autocomplete search box for the home page today

30 minutes later: Learning why hydrogen and oxygen, two very flammable elements, when combined, create water that extinguishes fire.

1 hour later: If an airplane is on a conveyor belt that's moving exactly at the speed of the plane, will the plane fly?

1.5 hour later: "This DrDisrespect situation is insane."

2 hours later: Open a ticket for bumping the library version to use the autocomplete feature.
