But there's another way of using time that's common among people who make things, like programmers and writers. They generally prefer to use time in units of half a day at least. You can't write or program well in units of an hour. That's barely enough time to get started. When you're operating on the maker's schedule, meetings are a disaster. A single meeting can blow a whole afternoon, by breaking it into two pieces each too small to do anything hard in. Plus you have to remember to go to the meeting. That's no problem for someone on the manager's schedule. There's always something coming on the next hour; the only question is what. But when someone on the maker's schedule has a meeting, they have to think about it.

白话
创造者(如程序员和作家)通常以至少半天为单位使用时间,因为一小时不足以开始写代码或写作。在创造者时间表上,会议是灾难:一个会议能把下午切成两半,每半都太短做不了难事,而且你还得记得去开会。管理者时间表的人总有事在下一小时,不用想;创造者却要惦记会议。所以创造者应尽量把会议集中安排,保护大块时间,比如设定固定办公时间,避免会议打碎整天。
