Coding in home VS Coding in office

This somewhat is similar to a saying "Try to get what you want. If you fail, you would be obliged to love what you get." :)

In office you code what you didn't imagine that you can do.
Or you could never be bothered doing until you were forced? I hope I understand what you mean.
I understand if nobody's interested in what I have to say...

Yes I do but office consume a lot of working hours :sigh:

At home I code work and private code, in the office just work, but that's the only real difference I see. I do a lot of R&D code at the office as well, which brings out the real artist in me, and I do a lot of deadline stuff at home. That is, before I fell on my laptop and broke the screen. Now, until I get my office desktop and can take my laptop in, I only code at the office. :(

For me, it's exactly the opposite. I produce code (at work) that I know will work. The stuff I do at home is where I experiment to find out what will work. Anything else is just downright reckless and is selling your employer short.

As Pete said, it's completely the opposite. But also, "in office" implies working as an employee. "in home" implies (at least for me) working more as a contractor. The truth is, I take more pride and care when I'm working for a client than I ever did working as an employee. Code ownership, the ability to go "off the clock" and write something general purpose that goes into my code library or becomes a CP article, is invaluable to me. I detested the "we own you" attitude of employers, often backed by employment contracts I had to sign. So I much prefer working at home. :) Marc

yeah, i'd hate to see the work to hours ratio of work and home :sigh:,

At work, I produce code they tell me to produce. At home, I am free to innovate.

At home you can code in your underwear. :-O In the office you have to wear a dress meet the office dress code. X|

I think it is all rather individual, based both on the person's individual nature and the job that he/she does. I have two different kinds of work at home, I take both very seriously. On deadline crunches, I will do my usual office work on a laptop or my home machine at home (this has also been done in the halls of the LA convention center during a conference, and many other locations). The other type of home-work is pure R&D. This is where I can take proposals that have been turned down and do it, or I can take an idea that no one believes will work, and make it work. I can innovate in ways that work would never risk my time, because I am too important to risk on whims of fancy. But some of our best code comes out of whims of fancy. No one paid for both my line-of-sight analysis or my intercept prediction algorithms, because in both instances no one believed they could be improved beyond what exists (which was passable, but not desirable). any work at home I can put down any time I want, per se. Though in some instances I need the extra time, or work desperately needs the extra time.
