After 3 years, 7 months and few days, rep points reached 5 aces with this post
Thoroughly enjoyable journey so far.. Learnt a lot from site and the great minds here..
The only thing which I never understood:: how the likes of OG and all gets to help on so many questions in QA, post on lounge (most times in few minutes with targeted fun/pun) and still get time to work to earn.. In all these long, I could only answer handful of questions and helped people.
Do you guys get few extra hours a day !!!
Thanks,

Yes. We do because we use this clock..!
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning

On serious note, I really wonder and thought of asking you many times... you review moderation queue, articles, post on lounge, help on QA and still find time to work which earns money... How?
Thanks,

A lot of it is time management.
A long time ago, I realized that concentrating on one thing for extended periods is bad - it forces you to think in a single line, and never consider alternatives. Basically, you "go stale" and your useful output drops. In those days, I smoked so cigarette breaks controlled the frequency of such interruptions. But I gave up - thankfully - so I deliberately take frequent breaks to do something else (CP stiff for example) which makes me think about other things. This has several effects - first it refreshes me for the task I'm trying to do, and second it exposes me to other ideas which are often unrelated, but can often spark a shift in thinking for the project I'm working on. Lastly, it provides a "reality check" that I'm doing the job right when I come back to it. If I'm not, then it's obvious immediately because it takes me time to "pick up the thread" of what I was doing. Then I can fix that as well, either by better documenting what I've done, or changing the way I'm doing it. All of which means I end up with a better product which is easier to maintain because I "goof off" doing something completely unrelated!
Give it a try: take a ten minute break every hour and stimulate your brain with other things. It's surprising how much of a difference it can make.
Plus I'm a gestalt mind of twelve clones, so you never know which one(s) of me you are talking to!

In your case, it seems like you take a ten minute break from Code Project every hour to do some real work.

Early on, I realized that I need break after certain period and it helps working better. I blamed it on the low attention span. And the breaks are mostly non-productive...
Never give a detailed thought on getting something else done in that time...
Good insight...Thanks
Thanks,
Milind

So, you mean CAT is managing CP or CAT is doing coding !?
Thanks,

Only the cat knows for sure.

Congrats on the milestone!...and thanks for asking a question that I myself have wondered about for some time! (QA time)
I found OG's response below above about how he does it, to be outstanding!
