That is certainly not what Tim Ferris wrote about in the "4 hour workweek" book, which is what the blog post referred to. The book is quite literally about optimizing your life so that hours worked per week reduces to somewhere very low (four came from an A/B test, as TF explains in one of the first chapters).


I've not read Ferris, but e.g. I consider watching some CS lectures as the part of a recreation and leisure instead of working.
