I am the author of this piece. It was something I put together as a curiosity and wanted to play with Astro. Hope you all enjoyed it!

This is excellent and aligns with my own experience.

During my day I try to minimize interruptions by batching them. I will largely ignore Slack, and as notifications come in I glance and determine quickly if it really is urgent or if it can wait. If it can wait, I will punt all of those messages to a "remind me later" of a few hours, and get back to my task. I think this keeps my "recovery time" small as I'm not looking too close at these messages. It's not perfect, but definitely helps over pausing my "real work" to fully dive into each notification or ask.

Thank you. Seminal work! I’m already thinking how I will change my day and my teams approach to work.

What is Astro? What did you use to make those graphs?
