It's indeed the noise. I work in a co-working space for a few weeks now - the noise is unbearable.

Also, prepare for lots of folks with hearing issues once the headphone overuse kicks in. It won't be pretty.

When I was younger, I was perfectly happy to listen to music all day long while coding. Now I find even that distracting and need quiet. It seems insane that in order to do our job effectively we have to put headphones on and play white noise!
