Discussion on: Coding Right Before Bed -- I Can't Do It

Yeah, feel sorry for you, but I recognize this all too well.

I have no problem in surfing or watching yt movies until late, but I should not do anything that involves more than 2 brain cells after 20:00 o'clock otherwise my head keeps spinning in bed.

If I do end up in this situation, the only way to solve it is by reading a book or something to calm my head, but that'll wake up my partner, so that's not an option.

The advantage of having a sleepless night, is that you sleep very well the next day :)

Haha, your optimism about sleeping better the next day makes me laugh.

I feel you. I try to stop coding at 8:00 as well. It's hard because I work full time, I hit the gym after work, but I'm working on my own project outside work, yet I can't work on it late. What to do, what to do...
