in thread Strange Coding Tales

Bathtub coding is great and the whiteboard is definately not a replacement for my keyboard, but the atmosphere (and even the process) offers me inspiration in abundance -- Mostly to see things from other perspectives. I'm not sure bathtub coding would work the same for me if I used a laptop. ;)

No, I've done bathtub IRC and it works if your careful, I don't see why bathtub coding with laptop would be any different.

    It's not so much an issue of being careful as it is a departure from the *normal* routine. I will usually retire to the bathtub when I'm stumped and in need of new perspective. Maybe I'm a little weird, but to change my perspective (not only in regards to Perl stuff), I try to get as far away as possible from my normal thoughts and routine.

      ok, that makes sense. I can see where that would be helpful.
