I've been developing professionally for about 10 years in the US, and I feel like just in that time frame, the culture is shifting more in this relaxed direction. The really intense work ethic was pushed by the startup culture. People thought they could be the next Zuckerberg. In recent times, we've seen countless startups either fail, succeed and become evil Big Tech, or fail and become evil anyways like Theranos. On top of that, when startups finally get their big payday, the developers often get screwed over, so what was all the sacrifice for? Working normal hours is just much healthier unless you really have some realistic goal that you're sprinting for.
