Oh, the things I’ve done.
Found the excellent Website Baker – a simple content management system. Probably what we will use for Gina Mauro‘s new site. I’ll be meeting with Gina on Saturday to help her buy a domain and get started.
Wrote an article on how to generate your resume in multiple formats with Zoho. It fixes problems in the google docs version.
Learned about polyphasic sleep. Seems like it’s a pipe dream for now. The basic idea is to compress your sleeping time to just REM sleep and do it on a strict schedule. I’ve read alot of the literature on the web and the common theme seems to be that it sucks to take a nap every 4 hours if you don’t have to.
I’ve started reading “The Filth“. I can’t really tell the difference between it and “The Invisibles” yet.
Saw the “Bourne Ad Infinitum”, where Jason Bourne tournes into an indestructible superhero. You know, you could really have stopped after the first few times he survived a paralyzing car crash.
More VIM love. I’m wondering how long until I’m faster with VIM than I am without it. Where’s the crossover point with VIM? More to the point, when I can I remove the vi/vim cheat sheet as my wallpaper?
Major achievements this week: Oh, I don’t know. How about celebrating 4 years of awesome with Sam?
Also, I scored major good son points with a perfect birthday gift for my dad. I bought him a picture of his boyhood home from the New York tax photo archives. I got the best thank you call ever. I’m still beaming.
I think I have heard of this polyphasic sleep thing. Something to do with sailors trying to break circumferential records….having to minimize sleep time?
Yup – that’s it.
The idea is instead of sleeping 8 hours at night, you sleep 20 minutes of REM every 4 hours.
