The problem with this argument is that computers take very little time to context switch - a couple of milliseconds at most. Most humans take closer to 30 minutes or an hour to do the same type of context switch.<p>As a fellow ADHD&#x27;er, I realized some time ago that while multi-tasking, I was just doing multiple things poorly. I&#x27;d lose the stack, forget tasks, lose conversations - basically be a waste of space, except for the very rare times where I could write brilliant code due to hyperfocus.<p>When not on medication, I will be forced multitask, but I do so with &quot;tasks&quot; which require differing amounts of concentration - so I can leave one part of my mind stewing on a problem while looking at cat pictures.
