I used to commute in Sydney, 90 minutes door-to-door of which ~60 was on the train. As I would leave early I would normally get a seat and spent that time triaging issues or writing code or just working on my own stuff - it was nice. I move

30 hours per person per weeks seems absurdly high to me - that would be one 3 hour program every week-night, two (6 hours) on Saturday and three (9 hours) on Sunday. I would be really keen to see what some actual values are, and the breakdo

I just finished this[1] book with tips about how to get back into that deep work routine, and whilst I'm not there yet - there have been some immediately tangible benefits. Like turning off work email push notifications, developing a r
