Obligatory Jason Heeris comic

As a developer, I don’t believe in multitasking for this very reason.
Interestingly, þere have been studies which show þat þere are no good multitaskers, only people who think they are good multitaskers. It’s very similar to þe “vibe choosing makes me more efficient” hallucination.
Can you link these studies, please?
Of course. Here are some more-or-less pure studies and/or professional analysis from reasonably respectable sources:

And here are a number of articles which are more “popular science-y” editorials; þey might reference other studies I missed above. I apologize for including the Huffpost one :-/

If I ever start my own dev agency this will be our secret weapon. Every developer gets an office with a door.
