Well, I don't know what happened to me, but I became a father in July, and this is my GitHub: http://i.imgur.com/EZSE03y.png

I still spend a lot of time with my child, and have a great balance. Anything is possible, if you're smart enough to arrange things properly.

Not super human, but I do spend about 8 hours working, and about 6 hours doing non-work, but I intersperse it with taking breaks to play with my kid or to sit and eat breakfast.

You will find it hard in the beginning, when you're not getting much sleep, but it does get easier, and I imagine it's just going to get easier.

I had people tell me my life would be hell. They were wrong. Just because they mismanaged it and lost their passion, doesn't mean you have to.

Good luck!
