Eclecticist
08.13.13 | Time is a scarce resource. It is because it is a scarce resource that people face trade-offs. The time that you allocate to listening to music is time that you could allocate to other activities. By weighing your opportunity cost, in most instances, it's rational to conclude that spending time to listen to music is less productive than perhaps spending it on materializing some form of your own output. Therefore, listening to music may not be a useful activity to engage in. |

08.13.13 | 1,2,5 are all amazing and 3 is good |

08.13.13 | Music opens your mind to new ideas. It can be as productive as you make it. |
Eclecticist
08.13.13 | Then some music may be a complimentary good. But then one runs the risk of misallocating their attention so that they don't produce as much as they would if their attention were not divided. Attention too is a scarce resource. |
Trebor.
08.13.13 | Music is best for stuff that is "busy work" basically, like parts of editing a film |
Eclecticist
08.13.13 | So does it then enhance or impede productivity? Is it complimentary? How does it effect efficiency? Is there a short-run sacrifice of equity (devoting as much attention to one's work as the music they listen to) over efficiency (devoting more time to generating output than listening to someone else's output)? |

08.13.13 | idk it gives me energy and allows me to focus, a lot of editing is second nature to me anyway so why not be listening to music
|
Eclecticist
08.13.13 | One way to look at it is as you've automated the process of editing and can therefore devote more attention to music without having to worry about an accident occurring. It is by this process that productivity is not sacrificed and music can be complimentary. |

08.13.13 | um
no
i literally don't do anything other than sleep for 10 hours eat and then waste time online
in fact i've had enough time to listen to music that i've started downloading a bunch of new shit cuz i'm wearing out old albums by listening to them too much lol |
Cygnatti
08.13.13 | I mean we're on this site right now, aren't we? we could be listening to good music as we speak. |
grish
08.13.13 | @jordanwagel the new album was actually the first i listened to, besides obscura awhile back but i
really didn't get into them then. i really like it, it's the reason i listened to the rest of their
work. ranks in the top 2 or 3 of their albums for me. my aoty so far |
minty901
08.13.13 | eclecticist seems like a snob. |
minty901
08.13.13 | is time spent analysing the efficiency/productivity of different tasks not, in itself, an inefficient/unproductive way to spend your time? more to the point: just do what you wanna do and enjoy life. |
amemento
