Because you can defend more, right? You can defend, yeah, I'm a developer. I make money. I need to get more screens, right? I need to be more efficient.

And I see friends just with gear acquisition syndrome that buying so much stuff. but they're not that productive. They have the best, most beautiful battle stations, desktops, everything. They're not that productive. And it's also like kind of fun. Like it's all from my laptop in a backpack, right? It's kind of nomad, minimalist.

Yes, so I go to sleep, like, 2 a.m. usually, something like that, and before 4 a.m. But my girlfriend would go to sleep midnight, so we did a compromise, like, 2 a.m., you know? So I wake up around 10, 11, no, more like 10. Shower, make coffee. I make coffee, like drip coffee, like the V60, you know, the filter. And I boil water and then I put the coffee in.

So I used to need like really long stretches where I would do like all nighters and stuff to get shit done. But I've gotten trained to like have more interruptions where I can like... Because you have to. This is life. There's a lot of distractions. Your girlfriend asks stuff, people come over, whatever. So I'm very fast now. I can lock in and lock out quite fast.

And I heard people, developers or entrepreneurs with kids have the same thing. Before they're like, ah, I cannot work, but they get used to it. And they get really productive in like short time because they only have like 20 minutes and then shit goes crazy again. So another constraint, right? Yeah, it's funny. So I think that works for me. Yeah.
