On: Working fewer hours would make us more productive

[kolinko]

Kindof related - one famus writer had a habit of always ending his work day mid-paragraph and mid-semtence.

That way he had an easy start next day.

Perhaps it's also a good method to work as a programmer? Don't fight to close that ticket before the end of the day?

My old colleage Mike Rowe wisely said "Always leave it compiling". That way you could go home thinking, that was probably the right fix. Then the next day you could go in and see that it wasn't, and pick up where you left off.
