A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
I'm all for people trying, so agree with this.
But my experience: I haven't had a good night's sleep in 10 years (wake up and am half-asleep, half-awake most of the night). I went to a sleep study, did the sleep-in-hospital-with-electrodes-everywhere thing, met with three doctors in series after, and their conclusion was that I should sleep more. I wish I was joking.
Try hiking a couple of days, better a week. I'm serious: Actually being outside for the whole day re-calibrates the circadian rhythm, and actually being active before going to bed makes sleeping way easier. Just don't make the mistake of setting yourself kilometre goals.
Did you take their advice? I'm regrettably a person who needs more like 9 to 10 hours of sleep, which is great because I love sleeping, but terrible because I love doing stuff.
Sure, when I can, but the issue is I'm in bed for 8 hours and getting 4-5 hours of sleep...
