   @lnxw48a1
   I have my own workaround for just this issue.
   I raise my hand to the "Stop/Hold" position.
   Get to a point where I can stop and leave myself a note on the next thing to do.
   Then let them interrupt me.
   I have even done this to my former boss and the owner. It wasn't long before they adopted it for the same reason.
   YMMV

   I have found that when I work, usually code or design stuff, I can't listen to podcasts because they take too much attention to what I am working on. Music is no problem.

    @lnxw48a1 I was wondering when this was going to happen, I used to follow him on twitter but stopped because of his postings and writing. I don't have to agree with everyone I follow but the attitude matters and his has been changing. I think there is something else going on, not sure what but there was a change a few months ago that I noticed and made me back away from him.

    @lnxw48a1 Yes, PHP and PyPI (Python) have had similar issues but it seems the more people use node/NPM than the others so it may be targeted more.
