- Midnight to 7 a.m., because everyone is asleep by that time.

Yeah, me too. Everyone's asleep, everything is quiet, I feel a little drowsy. It's really easy to get 'in the zone'

Because being tired makes us better coders.

Morning - 6am until 10am and late evening 8pm until 11 or so.

I generally hit a lull around mid day and often get some exercise and run errands to wake myself back up.

RescueTime indicates 6-9 am, 9pm-3am.

My sleeping schedule is so fucked up

Midnight till the morning!

The environment at night is so good that makes me productive and ready to face challenges. Helps me stay focused and get a lot of work done :)

Looks like I'm most productive after lunch, from 2:30pm until 7:30pm.

Side note, what is productivity and how to measure it?

Is productivity a measure of your focus(less breaks/distractions/browsing FB), the number of lines you write, or the number of tasks you check off as done?
