  I think this is bang on. The startup I work at is increasingly slipping into this mode; people are in the office from 9-5. Email conversations go from 6-10pm, people submit code until 1am.

  Normally this would be great. But the number of bugs, and the quality and uptime of our services is really starting to slip.

  Throw in a long commute, and life becomes pretty difficult.
