Motivation In A Prompt World, AI vs ADD
Interview Experience
TLDR: what are you doing to keep the motivation up and the doom scrolling down while you wait for the prompt to finish? I'm sure it's not just me, but as our roles are starting to move into everyone's favorite part of the role (reviewing code) how are you staying focused. Myself (ADD) before I could lock myself in, headphones on work on a feature or bug for a period of time. Now with say Claude code; plan plan, write some markdown, hit enter, wait (scroll on phone, get distracted), review, adjust, repeat. It's really not that interesting to stay focused on, or maybe it's super easier to get distracted while you wait. Now we can have multiply agents at least you can kind of bounce between them. Or spend time writing markdown, reading, learning etc. I know you can do alot more things but the context switching is pretty crazy. I know this not only affects the ADD engineers as well, everyone I talk to it seams oh yep more reviewing to do, ahhh yep I'll just prompt my way. And of course the workplace is just another AI hackathon after another. Anyway does anyone have an ideas on how they are staying motivated?
