Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate your perspective on time limits.

I don't have that feature, because I would argue that a problem you attack in three 1 hour stints across a span of 72 hours is a 72 hour problem.

Writing software is so much more than just typing. I tend to do my best coding in the shower or driving, nowhere near a computer. As soon as the challenge has been loaded into your brain, the work starts and the timer starts. How much of that time you spend in front of the keyboard is up to you.

Incidentally, I also think that a time limit of longer than an hour is probably too long. Uninterrupted multi-hour blocks are pretty hard to come by. Even if the time limit given isn't enough time for you to complete a perfect, working solution to the problem, it should be enough time for you to do enough work that we've got something meaty to talk about in the next interview.
