Are you a nocturnal programmer?

[Jorgen Sigvardsson]

I have a seriously screwed up sleeping cycle/rhythm right now. So, of course, I fired up the IDE and Winamp at 1800 hrs. Now its 0100 hrs, and I'm not even tired. Hacking the night away listening to "Enjoy the silence" by Depeche Mode. FreeBSD is sexy. Getting closer and closer to actually submit an article...

absolutely, it's not only programing, just my entire biorythm has a stable nocturnal setting. It's sometimes a hassle with my nine-to-WYARBNB5* job. I have no problem with the schedule as such, but one night going to bed after 4.00am (not necessarily progging) makes my biorythm flip, and it's hard to switch back. When I get less than 5hrs sleep, I'm pretty much zombie the next day - but strangely enough, I get a "bioboost" between 6 and 8pm nonetheless. *WYARBNB5 : whenever you are ready, but not before five :cool:

I work night shifts and have done so for over two years, so it's all the same to me. - Jason (SonorkID 100.611) The Code Project - Orange makes the art grow fonder

Well, I haven't! :) I have to be at work every morning so I can't afford going to bed at 4am. Best regards, Alexandru Savescu

My body/programming clock is locked onto an early morning cycle. 4.30AM to 5AM start - anything good gets written then & by the afternoon I'm completely shot :zzz::zzz: JohnJ X| Life is hard and then you die! X| http://www.rainbow-innov.co.uk[^]

I'm the same. It's to the point where I'm useless between 8am and 1pm, a little better from 1-7, then from 7pm to 2am I'm firing on all cylinders. A couple of weeks ago I tried to reset my clock so I went to bed at 10:30pm. I ended up waking up at 2:30am and staring at the ceiling for 3 hours. Eventually got back to sleep and slept till 10am. Lesson learned! ;) cheers, Chris Maunder

I do a lot of programming of my own in the late evening and early morning, and I even work during the night sometimes. I find there isn't much work for vampires during the day. ** evil buffy-like-villan cackling laughter **

Listening to quiet music can seriously damage your credability.
