I find that my productivity tends to peak between roughly 8pm and midnight, then I have a very significant downward slide around 2am and go to bed by 3am. Pretty unusual by normie standards, but not uncommon among other IT people I know.
I have to wonder if staring at screens all day has messed up my circadian rhythm, or if I'm naturally a night owl.
How bout y'all niggas? What time do you do your best work?

my peak is morning time, probably because of caffeine consumption

People are diurnal, so naturally most people peak in the morning. If your routine is different, then you're not most people because you've adopted a different lifestyle with it's own pros and cons.
Thank the lightbulb. Torch and candle light were the standard forever until then, so a nocturnal lifestyle back then would have been very different and uncommon.

I'd say after lunch and after dinner(With coffee as dessert). My brain needs a lot of calories i imagine.

Not if they used a candle with a broken mirror to aid in their reading as well as stab someone busting through the door to rape and pillage your family.

I used to think I was a total night person. I do definitely like sleeping in, but for the most part my most productive hours are just when people will leave me alone without interruption for a few hours and night happens to be like that. When I have uninterrupted time in the middle of the day I find I'm pretty much just as productive.

I don't even like walking to my car at night anymore. let alone drive around or whatever. Christmas time annoys me because of how early it gets dark.
It was fun when you're younger because the curfew is lifted but somewhere in your midlife.. you realize how dangerous it is. you can slip on shit you wouldn't normally see. you can get robbed. fewer people around if you need assistance from injury. you just trip more on shit when injured and injure yourself more. cops see you and often harass you wondering what the fuck you're up to. not to mention it's usually cold as fuck.

That's because you're a fat ass, and you ate too much.

happens to everyone who hits 40-45 pretty much. at least 90 plus percent of the population. and I have some real fucked up ulcerations in the eyes
losing focal point. whatever the fuck they call that shit. plus my right eye goes completely blind and flashes at night before coming back on. like it's rebooting or some shit.
Lets become FRIENDS LANNY.. and you can fly out to NYC with me in Oct on a cheap flight.. and we can rent an Air BnB together so I only have to pay for half of it.. 100 bucks each a night, we could get a sweet 2 bedroom or a 1 bedroom and I'll crash on the couch. We can bring highlighter gal with us, rent a movie on my laptop and throw popcorn in HisHer hair

I just stayed up all night doing server maintenance, then slept from 6am to 2pm. Could probably get used to this cycle.
