Your message is awaiting moderation. Thank you for participating in the discussion.
well, not exactly nothing. Programming at night beats not getting it done due to spillover during the day. Everyone is asleep at home and at work.
Another trend: Work At Home. What this is really for older programmers is "Work And Home", that is, Maximum Spillover.
That means More Programming At Night, yay!
