Q

How do you spend your time on coding or managing?

A

It’s very difficult to balance your time between your own work and the work of the team. Some days you’ll be on a “maker’s schedule” where you are heads down coding for large blocks of time. On manger schedule where you have many meetings and interruptions without time for deep work. Most days will be a mix of both.
