  • description: As a software developer, I’ve had to evolve my relationship with productivity. Today, I’m breaking down how I use the Pomodoro method not just as a "timer," but as a tool to fight Parkinson’s Law, manage deep work, and actually prevent burnout. Whether you are currently dragging your heels with zero motivation or you're "too locked in" and forgetting to touch grass, there is a specific Pomodoro split for you. In this video, we cover: - Parkinson’s Law - How to get the ball rolling when you have 0% energy. - Using timers to contain hyper-productivity and overworking. - Deep Work: Balancing "Flow State" with the reality of having a boss and colleagues. ⟡˖ The CLI timer I use Linux - https://gist.github.com/bashbunni/3880e4194e3f800c4c494de286ebc1d7 Mac - https://gist.github.com/bashbunni/f6b04fc4703903a71ce9f70c58345106 Fish version - https://gist.github.com/bashbunni/e311f07e100d51a883ab0414b46755fa ⟡˖ How to support bunni: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9H0HzpKf5JlazkADWnW1Jw/join https://github.com/sponsors/bashbunni/ ⟡˖ Affiliate links: "Deep Work" by Cal Newport: https://amzn.to/4bdDFub My keyboard: https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-q1-he-qmk-wireless-custom-keyboard?ref=BASHBUNNI ⟡˖ My other corners of the Internet: https://twitch.tv/bashbunni https://github.com/bashbunni https://discord.com/invite/Y3vbKS4K9j (come hang!) https://mastodon.social/@bashbunni https://twitter.com/sudobunni https://bsky.app/profile/bashbunni.dev Chapters 0:00 - How I prevent burnout 0:25 - Understanding Parkinson’s Law 00:56 - Low motivation days 02:10 - Preventing the 12-hour workday 03:43 - Deep Work & the "Availability" Balance 06:02 - Do I always use pomodoro? 06:25 - moar content
