I'm good for about 3-4 hours of focused knowledge work a day before I need a break or change in context. In the evenings when things are much quieter in my environment, I can squeeze in another 1-2 hours if its necessary.
I do agree with the "go to the gym" part of his spiel.

Re:The Two Classes of Software Engineer

This is a rehashed generalization of degree vs non-degree engineers. If you write code long enough you'll work with both brilliant people who take pride in doing the uninteresting work and idiots who talked their way into big projects.

I highly agree with this. When I was in position where I had to interview candidates this is was the 2nd half of my technical interview. Read a piece of code and going through it with me like you're pairing with Jr. Dev. I still think algorithm problems serve the purpose of filtering out the bottom of the barrel.
