Impact of a Night of Sleep Deprivation on Novice Developers’ Performance (2018)
I've bought recently one of those cheap wrist bands.One of the most important features for me was ability to measure sleep quality in terms of "daily hours of deep sleep," whatever that scientifically means.Over the course of several months, I've been able to identify things which affect my sleep quality:* eating late: bad* drinking late: one beer... not really that bad* answering work emails until midnight: REALLY BAD (even while drinking soothing chamomile tea during soft rain)
etc.I'm trying as reduce as many "bad" things as possible as I can feel a huge difference between 30 mins and 3+ hrs of deep sleep, as measured by the device.I feel much better during the day, can work more productively and, most importantly, my "fuse" seems to be much longer.Probably best $30 ever spent.(still missing weekend code binges of early 20s, though :/ )
