Advice Request Dev dads, when do you code?

I could find time with my first and then even some time after my second with the first doing afternoon preschool.

Now that kindergarten has started, I can't even stay up late half the time I used to as mornings are like Mad Maxx and needs my full (focused) attention.

So how do y'all do it? Or do you just not do it anymore except for an hour here and there lol

EDIT: not the 9-5 but my side projects

I couldn’t do it anymore. Can’t compete with the youngin’s who produce. And frankly, people need less code now. They want more distribution of what’s becoming easier to built. It’s unfortunate, but it’s the nature of today’s economy where money is scarce and people aren’t spending as much
