Hopefully it doesn't go like the X files episode: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleepless_(The_X-Files)
I'm all for getting rid of sleep, but given how society is structured I worry that the extra time will just end up being used for longer commutes and more zoom calls. Hardly advancement.
Genuinely don’t understand how this is possible. Not doubting your story - I’m just confused how someone is actually capable of this.
In Ranger School, which is notorious for sleep deprivation, I would legitimately start hallucinating after being up for longer than 72 hours or so. Granted the physical demands are much higher, but I cannot for the life of me imagine purposely staying up for 11 days - even just doing nothing. At some point that’s going to throw your metabolic rates into a tantrum (at least, it would for a normal person) and you’d just pass out.
Reminds me of an old episode of The X-Files.
