Programmers: How tired are you? Research on fatigue in the workplace.

It's only too quick if you care what happens to the other party.

Time and Motion men by another name still smell the same.

I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

My home life is so exhausting I go to work for a rest.

Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

I find it rather hilarious that I see this post after having not slept at all last night...

Caring for the other party can result in repeat visits. Sincerity, I can fake that.

How many hours do you sleep typically, in a day?

Typical workday, or average including sleeping in on weekends?

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

Do we get prizes for participating? I'd help the survey for some ice cream or a t-shirt.

Typical workday is more relevant. Thanks!

I call BS. Anyway Coding for myself for fun. Yes that is good. Coding for CRUD screens so that someone can enter an Insurance Claim Faster so that the 'Company' can deny coverage quicker and save more money so that some fat cat can line their own pockets with more premiums? Not sooo much fun. Hard to get motivated for that. Working for Elon Musk? yes please Clickity[^] Working for Insurance? ummm Yawn! Clickity[^] All that being said I do have to pay the bills or the DW gets annoyed.

To err is human to really mess up you need a computer

There are amazon gift certificates that I will be giving out at the end of the day to 3 participants. Mentioned on the survey page.

You underestimate us. That's so 1920s! We can now read your brains, measure your pupils, and test your saliva. http://www.chrisparnin.me/alt-code/[^]

Of course, I do have the added advantage of actually owning the company so I don't have to work for "the man" (whoever the man is).

And then you woke up.

[Jim Traugott]

I have, on more than one occasion, jumped awake to witness an emacs buffer filled with lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll... seems l is where my fingers like to sleep. By the way, this is my first ever post to CP (after years of lurking). Jim

[ClockMeister]

I'm too tired to waste time on surveys! ;)

[MacSpudster]

Well, keep on lurking, and don't hesitate a post here in there!!:thumbsup: :-D

And they don't care where they poop either.

I run or work out during the middle of the day. That break is pretty important for me, both physically and mentally. The folks who just sit there and crank code for eight hours straight seem like pallid zombies by the end of the day.

That's a good idea. I used to do that. I still workout in the mornings but a mid-day walk I can do.

I think the physical activity causes a fundamental shift in what your brain is being asked to do. That shift gives the analytical/intuitive side a break in favor of the sensory and emotional. I've come back from runs with fresh perspectives on technical issues more times than I can count. It also reduces the occasional need to have my big debut on CNN, because of something my coworkers have pulled :rolleyes: in the morning.
