We need more research on sleep, to be able to further improve the 33% of our life (assuming 8 hours of sleep).
While ideas like polyphasic sleep are cool to tinker with, the long term risks are too high IMO to 'experiment' as we know so little about sleep.
- epaladin 13y agoI'd not mind doing some self-experimentation with sleep, but I have a hard time drawing a line with when to stop and try to evaluate what the effect was. Changes might be so gradual as to not really being able to tell ("do I feel better now than before?"). I wish there were more objective measures for this sort of thing that didn't require a sizeable study population to be reliable. I guess we need more biomarkers for... sleep health?
