  • I’ve known two people that sleep very little. One was a guy from google that managed a team and also taught and did other stuff.

    I was doing the math and it didn’t make sense so I asked him about it and he said that he only slept 5 hours a day and it’s stressful on his family life, and that his dr keeps telling him it’s not healthy.

    The other person was someone that ran the company I worked for. I could tell by the remote access logs that he was going inactive around 2am and then would be back on by 6am. It didn’t seem possible and as a security concern I talked to him about it. He said that he barely sleeps. I verified it by talking to his assistants.

    Both of these people were extremely successful in their careers. I think it’s some sort of OCD that they’ve harnessed.



  • While I can sort of understand the argument that when the government is shut down it makes food distribution more difficult.

    But I can’t understand a government actively taking action to prevent food distribution by entities that are working around the shutdown.

    1. Isn’t this what supposed to be conservatives want: local government and communities more in control while less bureaucratic involvement at the federal level.
    2. people need food. Is the Republican Party actively trying to start a revolt? Forcing people to organize against the State for food safety has precedents.
