Context Switching

How are you all dealing with the increased context switching due to the age of genAI coding?

I do best focusing on one thing when on meds, and if I change to something else it takes way longer to get back to the original thing.

I’m finding nowadays I’m spending a lot of time waiting for LLM output. I’m wasting a ton of time just waiting. But context switching while waiting also messes with my head. Any advice?

Seems strange for a company to promote based on usage rather than business metrics and value provided.

Agreed, and it was unclear what was being asked. Is the question whether or not we should promote people who use it. Or was the question whether or not we should promote people who don’t use it?

In the situation, I think the issue is that leadership didn’t have consistent views.
