When people were in the office, were you able to tell the difference between someone staring blankly at a screen vs actually doing work for six hours?

I'd think so, but either way staring blankly at a screen for six hours a day is way worse than writing code. A much smaller temptation than all the entertainment options in your house and abound.

I think for most people, procrastination isn't actually about doing the more fun option.
