I used to be a polyphasic sleeper so this article interested me but I find myself stuck on the final paragraph. > My velocity has increased 10x and I'm shipping features like a cracked ninja now, which is great because my B2B SaaS is still in stealth mode. Does someone have a good book I can read on stealth mode startups? My B2B SaaS is only small (about $1.25m ARR) but I can't imagine shipping features without someo…
If you’re ever near the Annapolis area hit me up. I’m taking my boat out racing most weekends and Wednesday nights during the summer.

he mentioned being inspired by 100 rabbits. i assume the author is a bit odd compared to most people just from that
aesthetically, maybe. but i can't help think that someone who claims 100rabbits as an influence but molds their life around a paid service that burns a lot of joules in order to avoid getting closer to the metal might have missed some of the philosophical points.
It may reduce your life span by 50%, but when you consider it improves your productivity by 100x, it means you lived more of a life than those that didn't. (Also, I'm assuming this post is a joke, but some of the comments here seem to ve taking it seriously)

Please make this a series and monitor your vitals. Maybe routine cognitive tests would be a fun thing to do, like memory games or playing 10 games on lichess bullet daily, so we could track if the microsleeping is effective or not.
Reminds me of the guy who claimed that eating butter made him smarter, ate half a stick a day, then died of a heart attack.
You seem to be a young fella, so let me tell you this: Every time you do coder.Health-- for bank.Money++, you have the problem that you are never able to do coder.Health++ for bank.Money-- afterwards. Never sacrifice health for money. Never. Every idea that needs to be worked on more than 50 hours a week is an idea not worth working on. I know how it is, I've been there myself. You'll be reluctant to listen now. But…
Some of the happiest and most satisfied people I know are academics who work 80+ hours a week because they love what they do. You don't need to sacrifice health to work more than 50 hours a week. And realistically there is no long term health damage from what he is doing. And yes you can trade money for better health, though in the first world you rapidly hit diminishing returns but if your sleep deprivation can make…
Even if they told me themselves I wouldn't believe them.
Even if they were beaming with joy as the black circles in their eyes squinted while swearing there is no better joy than that of labour I would do what one of my ex-employers did and turn off machinery at 17.00 sharp.
There is no happiness in working long hours; there must be no happiness. Happiness must be verboten for anyone who thinks that undermining organized labour gains is "loving what they do".
I'm impressed by your determination. A while back, I had a big paper deadline a week away and knew I didn’t have enough time to finish without sacrificing sleep. Rather than cutting my sleep short, I decided to stick with 7–8 hours of rest and instead lengthen my wake window. I worked out a schedule that gave me six nights of sleep across seven days. It meant waking up at stranger and stranger times as the week went…
I'm depressed by their determination.

I too thought it was a joke, then the comments made me doubt myself
