The very first app (we called them "programmes" in those days) I ever wrote was a slot machine game on an Atari 400. It took forever to save to cassette tape, and I saved it often so a few hundred lines of BASIC code literally took weeks to write.

That's when I learned about being in the zone. I'd start coding after supper, and then it was the wee hours of the morning with seemingly no time at all in between. That's one of the reasons I'm not a "developer" today, my body can't handle so much zoning.
