      no distractions…
      one metaphor i heard is, holding a program in your head is like building a house of cards, every time a phone rings or something breaks your concentration, you have to rebuild the house

        Holy moley.

        I guess this is why programmers generally don’t do construction.

      Some people are more diurnal, some are more nocturnal.

      My productivity peak is between 8PM and 11PM, but with kids this is impossible.
