How many of you are binge coders?
Okay. Here's my workflow:
- block out at least three hours of time
- stock up on coffee and shutdown all distractions
- code until my brain breaks.
This has implications for office work, because it means I can't do anything other than randomly browsing the nets, meaning that I go to work all day for fun, come home and binge until I fall asleep. Kind of screws the work/life balance we hear so much about these days.
So. How many of you are truly disciplined about your work and how many just binge?

- jacquesm 17y agoSounds familiar. I'm pretty good at putting stuff off until I can't get around it any more. I alternate between periods of constant output and periods where I basically just surf the web and make up for lost time at night. It's pretty weird though, I find that I am much more productive when the world around me has come to a halt. It doesn't help that I am very easily distracted.
