Curious to see the answers, as I know some people just work a few hours per day

I have a self-imposed limit of 4 hrs/day of productive code-writing; beyond that, quality drops too much to be sustainable. There's plenty of things to do during a workday, of course; salaried days deserve 8 hrs/day, and I've been on on-call rotations that require 12 hrs/day of presence.
