Background music actually negatively effects cognitive performance. You enjoy the work more, though.

ephemeralname··on Ask HN: What have you bought or sold using a cryptocurrency?
1) Buying

2) Modafinil

3) BTC

4) ~$100 USD

5) 2023

6) Clearnet site

7) Smoothly

8) Yes

9) There are compelling uses of cryptocurrency, they're just mostly limited to things that you wouldn't want to talk about publicly. And so of course you'd be unlikely to hear about them. If I wanted to buy/sell hard drugs on the internet in large quantities, I'd probably want to do it over a DNM with XMR, and I would try to draw as little attention to myself as possible. I certainly wouldn't want to talk about my experience on HN.
