There’s simply no way to cheat the circadian rhythm. My peak brain activity is 11PM-3AM and it resists the half-assed attempts to budge it. Guess it’s either all or nothing – it won’t magically move to some other hours unless I put lots of efforts in. The question is, what’s to gain? (and to lose?)

My friend has an ingenious device on his desk. It’s a work / no work switch. And it works.

What is this ingenious device, you ask? Well, it’s a WiFi dongle. He pulls it out of the USB port when he wants to get some real work done.

Brilliant.
