How are you measuring this? Those numbers seem incredulous.
- acid__ 5y agoI’d maybe get 1-2 hours of semi-productive time per day in. Write code 1 or 2 times per week. Honestly, I was pretty shocked at how I could get away with that and it was very demotivating to not have any reason to do more. Now I’m firing on all cylinders for 7-9 hours a day, completing the entirety of a previous WFH day by 11 AM, and it feels _really_ good.
- wait_a_minute 5y agoI’m pretty sure it’s BS propaganda.
- acid__ 5y ago“BS propaganda”? What would I possibly have to gain by lying…? Other people are allowed to have differing perspectives and opinions.
- tomtheelder 5y agoOh, get a grip. Have you considered that other people might have different experiences from you? The switch to WFH _destroyed_ my productivity and made me extremely depressed. At a previous company I switched to remote because of a move and the same thing happened, so it's not the pandemic that's causing it either. Different people are different. For me, WFH is absolutely soul sucking.
- frumper 5y agowell he gets done by 11am(8am-11am?) so 8 hours into 3 hours, 8/3 != 5x let alone 10x, sounds like maybe an exaggeration
- acid__ 5y agoWait, who in tech is starting work at 8am? My average day starts around 10. 10x is an exaggeration to be sure, but I will happily defend 5x.
- mywittyname 5y agoLots of people. You never noticed because you're never in that early :).
