Anyone else get their best coding done between the hours of 10pm to 6am when we're finally enjoying peace?

During grad school, I analyzed my dissertation data in the restricted access room late at night while binging Star Trek TNG and Voyager on my laptop. I'd then go to my 7am meetings with my early bird boomer advisor for my RA job and immediately crash once I got home.

I can't code within hours. Once I'm thinking about it, it just bounces around in there until I figure it out. So I appear to slack off a lot, but I'm thinking about it very often even outside work.
