A comment on Just shut up and let your devs concentrate, advises Joel Spolsky. Parent comment
I hate slacking at work. Actually don't count it towards my hours unless it is compile time or reading something useful (biggest trap for me).
Yet what helps me is just removing 1. the interruptions (noise is OK) and ideally 2. the risk of interruptions.
1. helps me concentrate eventually. 2. helps me concentrate almost immediately.
So, no, privacy won't make me slack of and browse HN, that is what I do when I cannot do anything else but want to be in front of my PC anyway.
