Weird that some companies have a dedicated role for that. My current gig doesn't talk about agile at all... we still have two week sprints and self directing teams and all of that, just none of the annoying buzzwords
yeah I also tried them once out of curiosity. I don't think I have an attention disorder, so it might've affected me differently than others, but adderall made me like super focused on everything
I'd imagine if I did it more often, I'd be a more productive programmer. At the same time, idk what the health risks are for that and I'm already a bit of a hypochondriac as it is... so I probably wouldn't risk liver damage or whatever is associated with long term use
Imho this whole ADHD/adderall thing is just the pharma industry peddling medication and shilling super hard. I wouldn't be surprised if pharma dollars somehow influenced this BBC article getting published
If some people like paying an additional tax to the pharmaceutical industry, good for them. For me personally, I'd rather jump off a cliff then support it
Before someone gets shitty with me for "denying their experience", no I'm not denying it. I'm saying it isn't universal, and the pharma way isn't the only way
