Little overpriced but I've found Loop Earplugs to help working in coffee shops, etc. Muffles out most of the sound but not everything, enough to focus but not fly off your seat if someone taps your shoulder.

What's the purpose of doing this over working at home where this problem doesn't exist?

  • I work at home 99% of the time but occasionally it's nice to get out of the house and see the world of the living.

  • For many you really want a distinction between “work area” and “home” - one way is to have a separate office at home to do work in, but you can also leave the house and go somewhere.

    If you work on the kitchen table and that’s where you play, also, the mind and body have hard times disengaging from work.
