"I have a short attention span, a very short one, and I have very, abnormally poor energy levels, to such a point that while my physical strength can be up to snuff, my mind is always running at 8Mhz. I am a programmer. This is a problem. However, I find that some places are better to code at than others. If I can sit somewhere upright, looking down at the monitor, in a comfortable position, I can sometimes get some work done, and if my monitor is large, soft, and bright, I am better off still. Do soylentils have issues with location? What would you suggest for being able to sit down and code for hours, something I have NEVER been able to do?"

I'm not a robot like you. I don't like having disks crammed into me... unless they're Oreos, and then only in the mouth.

When I want to concentrate, I either play music I know very well or instrumental music with a simple structure. That way, the music suppresses distracting sounds while not being a distraction itself. I always play it at mid volume though, since low-volume music involuntarily takes effort for me to listen to (trying to make out details).

This ^^ ... I do hate, what I can barely hear the music, like someone has the radio on, but I can't really make, what it is playing ...brain(s) starts concentrating on that ... what a distraction
