hunger’s effect
December 8th, 2003
I keep having to re-learn this lesson: I am not capable of being efficiently productive with stationary (computer) work, if I am hungry. I’ll get things done, but it will take a lot longer.
Tasks that require me to move – walking from point A to point B, [non-food] shopping – are not affected by this, within reasonable limits. Neither, for the most part, are stationary tasks that happen mostly on autopilot, like driving.

I find that I am the same way. I tend to need food/drink strewn about my computer desk in order to be an effective programmer/literatist/editor.
