You go from 30 to 35 straight to 60 when im thinking 40 hours a week. I dont know about you all but if i work 5 to 10 fewer hours a week i would get a lot less done
If I instead stay at my desk consistently, my week is over by Friday morning.
I agree and think 5-6 hours is the magic number. Then, I start making errors, taking shortcuts and producing shit code. However, if someone is a super human and can code for 60 hours every week, breath code and make $400k at some unicorn all power to them.
In reality, after $75k your happiness will generally not increase very much if you increase your income.
Or, put more simply: I end up in way fewer meetings.
