No really, its actually another day... Well, I wrote this 12 hours after I posted the last MoHM, but you won't get it until tomorrow. I'm still pretty motivated to work on Hack Mars. In fact, I'm just rearing to go. I'm going to switch up my sleep schedule so that I can work all night tonight on 4 hours of sleep. That way I can hopefully skip one four hour sleep per four. That would become 12 hours of sleep per 2 days or 6 hours per night. But I will sleep 3 times, so I plan on no loss in quality of work. Have you ever tried it? Skipping any sleep? The main thing is to go to sleep when you are tired. Don't go to sleep because it's 3 AM. When your eyes start to hurt, you can keep on until you find a good place to stop. Sleep when you find yourself having problems with vision or other dull ache or pain. But don't sleep long. Set your alarm and stick to it. If you are motivated, you'll wake up no matter how many hours. And if you can trick yourself into thinking that you're getting enough sleep, you can be more productive by skipping some sleep. I've only done it a few quarters (mostly college), but it works well. But DO NOT skip sleep for work that you don't like. That's funny, right? Well, I want to warn you that skipping sleep for bad reasons is silly. You can always get work done. You have 80 hours easy per week. That's not the problem. Not having enough time is caused by something. Debug your life and see why you aren't using your time correctly. If you complain about missing sleep for lame work, I have no sympathy. Skipping sleep is for people who have a mission, not a 5 year plan.
0.7 days and another MoHM hits the shelf. I'm working on Hack Mars in case you're new here. I hope today's lesson will be short because I want to work. Below is a screenshot of what Hack Mars v4.0 r0.22 looks like.
Another 1.5 days, another MoHM. I'm late because I stayed up until 5 AM helping my friend clean his office and put in a shelf. Hanging out in the early hours is cool, but it is hard on one's nerves. There is a police officer, T. Bacon (no joke) who is a nice guy. He stopped my friend and I for a headlight and was very nice about it. I hate to admit that without thinking of it, I said, "Thank you, Officer Bacon." That probably took a year off my life. I was just trying to be nice. It's nice to know that my friend doesn't have any warrants out for him. You never know when you live in the city if a person you meet is a trustworthy citizen =P. There are thousands of warrants out and the person you're sitting next to may be -- a criminal! Bleh, who gives a fsck? I have proof that there exists at least one nice officer in the SPD. I also have proof that there are at least a dozen fascists in the SPD.
Greetings. I missed one day of MoHM because I was kicking so much arse yesterday. I even forgot what I did. But I found out. And today's lesson is how to find out how much arse you kicked. It's not a perfect method, but it gets it done almost every time. Let's say I forgot what I did yesterday. I know that you did a lot of work on the computer (in fact, I didn't leave your chair 15 hours of the day). I can guess what directory I worked in. See below:
