The Brad Hole

There is an article on nature.com about an interesting study on how sleep affects your ability to think through problems. As a programmer, I tend to keep "programmer's hours" - I get up late and go to bed late. (It doesn't hurt that I work from home.)

If this study is true, it leads me to think that I can benefit from either doing all my programming in the morning, or just take a nap every time I get stumped by a bug. I think I'll try the latter. :-)
