Re:Ask HN: How to increase self-discipline as a self-employed person?

I spent 15 years working from home. Everyone I know who worked successfully from home had some sort of trick to get into work-mode.
I always went out for coffee first thing. While I was out my apartment would magically transform into my office and I would come back 20 minutes later ready to work.
I know a guy who always put on a suit and tie even though he was at home because it got him into the right frame of mind. Whatever works. You might say the whole point of working from home is NOT wearing a tie. But if you can't find a way to work well from home, you will eventually have to admit failure and go back to working from an office.
Tell you what though: once you find your start-the-day trick and you feel you are working productively, you'll have to find a similar reverse-trick to get out of work-mode at the end of the day.

Me too, I wish it had got more discussion. I guess I shouldn't have posted it on a Sunday morning.
Ask HN: Do you dream about code?
I had a dream about coding.There was a new C# keyword 'bargo' which returns the value of the last but one function in the call stack. Someone had refactored all my code to make heavy use of it and I was completely lost.Does anyone else have dreams about code? How is the code/language/environment in your dreams different from what you use in real life?

There's certainly quite a bit of booze at an Argentinian hackathon. These were the guys who showed up. Half my team disappeared after the Friday evening.
