Kind of funny that the idea of constantly flipping between a bunch of things increases productivity. I’d imagine if this person had instead limited themselves to a single 15” laptop screen their productivity would’ve increased over their baseline because they’d be focused on one thing at a time.


Honestly doubt it - I watch files/diffs side-by-side constantly - at 120 line length with a 15 inch MBP there's just no way even if I kill the explorer panel - I can just barely fit it when i zoom out one level from my comfortable font size and have the panel closed - but that's not a great experience for me.


My point was that committing to a change that you think will make you more productive is likely to make you feel more productive.

People don’t like to admit they’re wrong and really like to convince themselves they were right.
