I came across this Column by Nick Denton on some web log or another (someone running bloxsom, if memory serves). I do wonder if the strains of burnout that I've seen in coworkers past (and to some degree present) wouldn't be mitigated if we took a smarter tone in how much work we do.

And of course, this is a mode also promoted by Peopleware afficionados - though I've known some proponents (self included) who find it simpler to intelectually understand PW than implement it in our working lives....
