Posture

There’s a GitHub project called posturr that blurs your screen when you slouch. This comment on Hacker News by avalys explains the inverse relationship between a developer’s posture and their productivity.

You can measure my productivity by how slouched I am.

Sitting up straight at my desk, chair locked, perfect posture? I’m doing nothing, maybe looking through System Preferences to change the system highlight color.

Sliding down in my chair like jelly, with my shoulders where my butt should be and my head resting on the lumbar support? I’m building the next iPhone and it’ll be done by 2 AM.

Ha!
