My fav quote in the trackback:
I read an article before about a guy who worked when he felt like it, e.g. if its raining outside then he’d stay at work longer and get some more stuff done, but if the next afternoon as sunny, he’d take off knowing that it would be a waste trying to write code when his head wasn’t in it.
Hmm…Microsoft is in Washington…it rains ALOT in Washington. M$ churns-out lots of code…connection? :-)
