I did a keto diet for a few months 3 years back and one of the things that I noticed very quickly was the reduced need for sleep. I slept at least an hour less every night and I felt great. Apparently it's due to a reduced production of melatonin.

The app is terrific. Can't wait for a revision that includes all the popular tv shows.

But it's supposedly also very easy to detect whether you're being tracked or not, right? GSM+GPS seems a lot more stealthy.

shameless plug: my ncurses thin SPV bitcoin client for linux/mac:

https://github.com/bit-c/bitc

  * 100% C code,
  * support for linux and mac platforms,
  * console based: uses ncurses,
  * home grown async network i/o stack,
  * home grown poll loop,
  * home grown bitcoin engine,
  * supports encrypted wallet,
  * supports Tor/Socks5 proxy,
  * multi-threaded,
  * valgrind clean.
You'll need basic dev skills to install it: check-out the code, install dependencies then build. It's all in the README file. I'm interested in all kinds of feedback you may have: feature requests, bugs, etc. Thanks!

Interesting, I've also developed a bitcoin client :) However, mine is completely independent of bitcoin-qt and is meant to be lightweight and snappy. It uses SPV. Here's a screenshot:

Let me know if anyone is interested in taking a look.
