one perhaps more widely applicable learning of our recent experiences is that, when sleep deprived to an uncomfortable degree, doing relaxing things like looking at trees and listening to music makes one less tired, and intellectual stuff, reading, writing may make one more tired
not in terms of actual level of tiredness, just kind of like, subjective level of comfort with being awake, doing intellectual things is really agitating (ergo: don't use twitter much when you're tired, it makes it worse)
we have noticed before that when we wake up and feel awful, especially after a short nap, going for a short walk is particularly good for clearing the mind. i think it's the same thing.
we are alas realising that the project of half our 20's has been managing a sleep disorder
@hikari it can depend on the type of the thing; a big part of the reason for me being _this_ productive is that i find much of the programming i historically did as incredibly calming in any state
