That seems like a really bad idea. You’re setting yourself up for sleep problems by associating your bed with work, and programming in particular is not a great thing to be doing just before bed, as it gets your brain really worked up.
If your wife is sleeping that whole time, what are you really gaining? The laptop screen light is probably affecting her sleep, and you’re possibly creating issues for yourself. It sounds like multitasking where you end up with two things in a mediocre state instead of giving full focus to each.
- the_af 5y agoAgreed, plus the screen glow is bad for your sleep cycle and eyes as well. I don't think there's an easy solution. Either your side projects suffer, or your relationship. I choose to keep my relationship healthy, but at some point, if you keep postponing every project and hobby, frustration starts to mount and that's not good for relationships either.
