Over on boing boing, a link to an interesting article on the difference between a manager’s day and a developer’s (the maker’s) day, and how a 1 hour meeting can have a devastating impact on a developer’s day.
It’s rare that I get to make anything in terms of development these days, but I also consider setting team strategy and process and ensuring execution on that strategy a “making” activity. I do this all the time and can confess to having the same feelings as Paul Graham, relishing in days that are appointment free, and sometimes going so far as booking out a whole day to make sure I don’t get interrupted.
Link to actual article, a very interesting read, Maker’s Schedule, Manager’s Schedule.
