> Many programmers have flexible work hours they can use. You don't need to be in Silicon valley or have a pile of cash to work in a flexible work environment.

Yes and no.

Many programmers can start work when they want, and end work 8-10 hours after that. One segment.

Only the very well off or upper management are able to truly work flexibly. Show up in the morning for a few hours, take off and go to the gym or home, show up later and work for a few more hours. No problem for the founder of Twitter.
