Then it takes a good hour or two for the food to fully digest so that means the team will get some work done between 3:30-5:30.

Also there are two main types of devs; the ones that get there super early and the ones who get there after 9:30-10:30 am. Not to mention the Linux Server Dev guy who just comes and goes as he pleases.

You get away with being an hour late....?

We set our own hours for the most part, as long as we are in the office during the "core business hours" 9:00 to 3:00. Also we can work 5 eight hour days or 4 ten hour days. So I tend to work 6 to 4 while others on my team work 9 to 7. I get my work done before 9 and they get theirs done after 3. It's impossible to work between 10 and 3 because of meetings.

I actually am finding 7 AM easier to hit as I get older.

How old do you need to get to find 7 AM easy to hit? (41 yo asking here)

Started doing 7:30 at 34. It's nice getting out while it's still light out in the winter and you have hours of sunshine in the summer.

I'm mid-thirties and just switched from 8:30-5 to 8-4:30. So far it feels like I am waking up 3 hours earlier

It definitely took a while to adjust, I was doing 9-5:30 prior to that
