Comment on Night Hacking (the productivity boost of 2 am)parent

Comments

I was a night person until the final year of my PhD. Something about that year made me switch to being a morning person, strange as it sounds.

Now I get my best stuff done before most people wake up. I start to slow down a little after lunch. After about 7 or 8pm I find it hard to get any good work done.

I was just trying to find a quote I used to like, about it being uncivilized to expect people to work after lunch... I think it was by a famous mathematician or philosopher, but I can't find it now - does anyone know who I'm thinking of?
