You want real connection to code? You earn that. You dig in. You wrestle with segfaults at 3 in the morning. You pace your apartment muttering about pointer arithmetic. You burn through Handmade Hero until you get it.

Absolutely the best learning happens at 3AM. This guy is selling being overworked to the breaking point as some kind of rite of passage. That’s not working. Or learning. It’s the road to sucking off a 9mm 4 weeks later.

I once woke up at 3. Got a brilliant idea on how to solve one specific problem plaguing me for weeks. Went back to sleep. It was exhilarating.

I just couldn't remember the solution when I woke up again. Bit for this short period of time it was beautiful.
