(found a way to provoke a flow state. It's wonderful. So much work getting done while not realising time exists... until someone calls)

I will type out a prompt, and while I'm waiting for it to finish, I'll go on a non-work-related sidequest that has fifty steps. Next thing I know, its two hours later and the agent finished it works an hour and a half ago

Time estimates with ADHD:
- Figure out how long it would take you on a good day when you can lock in
- Double the number
- Move the unit up by one

So:
- For a 2 hour task, estimate 4 days
- For a 3 day task, estimate 6 weeks

For me back in the bad old office work days it was get 8 hours work done in 30 minutes at home, email everyone, go into office after a nice breakfast and avoiding traffic, get yelled at by boss about not getting x done, ask, "have you checked your email?" wait for apology, go to my office and play Spider for two hours, go to lunch.

I don't think I have ADHD but when I was unmarried and wrote software for a living I used to love the week of Dec 26-31, nobody in the office and I could just go in and do two month's worth of work.
