I have a crazy amount of different jobs, so the way I manage that is to not do more than one at a time. It's like old computers that had small memory chips, they would do something called swapping, where they would fill the memory with one task, do it and get it out.

Summary

This quote is about handling multiple jobs or tasks efficiently by focusing on one task at a time. The analogy drawn between managing tasks and old computers with limited memory chips is used to describe a similar approach called "swapping." Just as the computers would fill their memory with one task, complete it, and then move on to the next, the speaker suggests working on one task, completing it, and then switching to the next. By not overwhelming oneself with too many responsibilities simultaneously, one can effectively manage a variety of different jobs.
