My conference presentations became much better once I learned to practice them a few times. That takes well more than an hour. The presentation takes about a week to put together. The research behind it can take months. So ... yes, I need more than an hour. That said, that's not the post's point, which is that many one hour deadlines (and I assume these are real deadlines?) leads to better and quicker progress than a single 6 month deadlines. I think the use of "an hour" when it's actually "a series of short deadlines" to be a bit dishonest.
