Night Shift
From my previous item, it is implied that I live at night. Very few people wake up shortly past midnight, but let me explain why this induces a huge gain. Here are my top 3 motivations:
- Network load is sometimes only 10% of that at daytime. I can download a full backup of my ¼ gig Web space in under a minute.
- Traffic and pollution of daytime are avoided.
- Psychlogical uplift from work completed before the day began.
On the downside, a person’s nightlife (in the conventional sense) is shattered.
