"If you get an error saying that this app is from an unknown developer, that's because Apple doesn't trust you to make grown-up decisions yet about what applications you want to run. Just find Sleep app in your Applications folder, right click on it, and click Open."

Yes, Apple doesn't trust you, and with good reason. I think we have properly demonstrated the average public has no sense at all when when it comes to running software from unknown developers with the chance that it is potentially malicious and damaging.

Sounds to me like the real solution to this problem is to have some sleep hygiene and get off of your laptop for awhile when you get sleepy.

If I was frequently waking on the couch with my laptop on my chest I wouldn't think "gee, did I get enough sleep? I should write an application that detects what time I doze off on the couch!" I'd think "Wow, I need to address my late night computing habits, as they're clearly interfering with my sleep."

Note, this is probably troll copypasta from some recent article.
