Wow! that is a great idea. Here I was using blackout cloth and nails… Edit: A friend of mine informs me that this is commonly used by meth labs...and may attract unwanted attention from authority figures?

Totally serious. I do prefer coffee for mTOR impacts, particularily in combo with exercise/intermittent fasting, but tea has it’s own set of benefits. Butter Tea

It probably will improve sleep quality, but I have yet to run A/B tests and measure it with my Zeo/Fitbit.

I’d be happy to give you a pair of Hearos next time I see you! I also have a few pairs of SilentEar reusable earplugs that I use for airplances or other times that I want to be able to easily insert/remove earplugs.

If you use outlook, Outlook 2010 lets you (at least) duplicate these features.

Brookstone Napform sleep mask Best sleep mask I’ve found, soft, you can fully open your eyes while wearing this.

Etymotic ER-20 earplugs Use these so you can listen to music, go to clubs, ect, and still preserve your hearing. I’ve probably bought 15+ by now, and keep one in every bag/jacket I own.

Kindle 3G Keyboard E-book reader, but get this one for traveling—this provides backup internet access, practically worldwide. You MUST buy the older “keyboard” version for this. Also fantastic to read books on ;)

How frequently do you re-balance?

I’m a hacker/computer security expert. I use DropBox for low sensitivity files (it sync’s far faster, and has better integration) and SpiderOak for more sensitive data.

The majority of photos were taken from my Less Wrong/Rationalist photo archive - feel free to use more from there to expand the photo collection :)

I will be there for part of the time—I’m flying in Thursday, flying out Tuesday. (I was already scheduled to be in Portland for the World Domination Summit, so I’ll stop by :) Also going to jump off bridges :D

Shannon is a connector and will help introduce you to other interesting people! I’d advocate that people stay at her place even if they already have other crash space in Berkeley—as this way you are likely to meet new people that you otherwise would not have met.

I recently (June 10-18th) stayed at Shannon’s place in Berkeley—additional advantages include it being within walking distance of public transportation! :)

I will help find/sell plane tickets to friends (and those in my extended friend network, such as LW) at a discount :)
