I’m a remote work from home employee who never ever works overtime.

I do use Claude code for my personal projects and ping at them from coffee shops and micro moments during my free time.

It’s possible to engineer your own life boundaries and not be a victim of every negative trend in existence.

You can do it on a personal level, but when everyone else is overworking you, your manager will compare your output based on your peers, and based on it, you might be negatively impacted

Yeah absolutely. It’s hardly things like Claude Code that are the problem, Slack (or other forms of communication) are much easier to slip into personal time and have been a trend since Blackberries were invented.

This is always the reason I'm interested in this exact workflow. Want to build something but never have the time without sacrificing significant amounts of sleep but now it's easier than ever to get things building.
