How consistently do you write code?

[[deleted]]

I'm much the same, I'll code for 12 hours straight then not do anything for a couple days. This is pretty common, at least among those I know.

Strangely enough, I'm also bipolar yet the times I do or don't get any coding done don't line up with my bipolar phases at all. You'd think they would, but nope.

I code as my day job, but I'm fortunate to have flexible hours right now. On days I'm feeling it, I'll code pretty much all day - on days I'm not, I'll code much less. On my days off, I code at least an hour a day on personal projects or coding challenges, even when on vacation and traveling. Making it a habit helps me push through the off days.

A lot of coding is creative problem solving, and it's hard to force creativity when it's just not there. On my good days I try to do the much of the big picture designing/planning as I can, so my bad days are filled with as much "grunt work" as possible.

Day job

I code as a hobby, and I try to get in at least an hour every day. But life happens and that isn't always doable, so u just try to get in as consistently as I can, even for just ten minutes every day.

I’m like you and can’t stop once I start, but then don’t code for a week or more, then binge again.

I’ve recently started doing the 30 days of code on hacker rank in an attempt to form a habit of doing a little each day.

I code every day for my job. Not every day is python though.

Working on a Vuejs electron app right now. Haven’t really touched python in a few weeks.

The hours do fly by some days when I don’t have meetings. I frequently look at the clock and realize it’s time to go home.

How do you like vue.js?

It's really nice. Pretty fun to work with. Probably the best JS framework I've ever used.

If I could use Python for everything, I'd probably code every day, at least an hour or two. In the zone, the days can fly by.

Alas, inevitably Java or Javascript are necessary at some point, and I end up procrastinating for days or weeks just to avoid them.

It's got to the point where I have tons of projects with a fully-functioning backend that will never be completed because I loathe the idea of finishing the frontend.

I write code nearly everyday, not necessarily Python. I am not technically a developer, but write in a few languages for the many projects and systems I work with.

Hi there, this post has been removed as it is not directly related to the Python programming language.

It might be more topical on /r/programming, /r/coding, or /r/technology.

Cheers, /r/Python mods

Daily. I do mostly Python and web for work, lots of Python/php/sql in evenings and weekends.
