How effective is the thinking that can be done if you don't have access to any of your work? I'm a gov't employee and am affected by the shutdown. All of my work is on my office computer, which I'm not allowed to even turn on during the shutdown. Yes, it's illegal for me to turn on my work computer or access work email during the shutdown.
Sure, I can think all day about how to solve the current bug in my software, but without access to the actual code on my gov't computer not much can be done.
I worked out an algorithm on paper while I was on vacation once. Once I was back, I implemented it quickly.
