The Chronicles of a Developer

A Day of Ups and Downs: Sleep, Work, and a Frustrating Surprise

Our protagonist's day began at an ungodly hour, as his plan to stay up all night to reset his internal clock was thwarted by a wave of exhaustion. He relented and slept, but only for a few hours before waking up groggy and tired. Rising from his slumber at noon, he resolved to regain control of his sleep schedule by aiming to go to bed at midnight and wake up at 7 a.m. the next day.

With renewed determination, he laid out his morning routine: playing Beat Saber, showering, and heading to the office to make breakfast and coffee. Anxious to put this plan into action, he looked forward to trying it out on a workday. But first, he had to get through today.

Excitement grew as he anticipated picking up his new, customizable watch the next day. He had big plans for this timepiece, including developing apps for health, automation, and AI. One of these apps would nudge him to stand and stretch periodically, while another would help him find the perfect sleep schedule. He knew that waking up at the same time every day was important, and he trusted his future watch to be the master of this calculation.

After a late start at the office, he enjoyed a breakfast of eggs and bread before heading to the campus. There, he found himself in a room with three screens, a unique workspace that offered a refreshing change in posture as he looked upwards at the screens. He dove into his work, focusing on logistic regression and tweaking hyperparameters.

But as the day wore on, a twist of fate struck. When he tried to return to the office, he discovered that his keycard had stopped working. Unbeknownst to him, a passcode change had re-encoded his card, leaving him stranded on campus, separated from his belongings.

Despite the unexpected turn of events, our hero remained optimistic, reflecting on the day's successes and looking forward to the challenges of the next day. Will he overcome this hurdle and conquer his sleep schedule? Will his new watch be the key to finding balance in his life? Find out in the next chapter of this thrilling adventure!
