And thus the term "forkbait" was born.

Can we have this conversation without resorting to highly gendered stereotypes for trivial-media-that-I'm-not-interested-in examples?

Perhaps another way to think about this is the distinction between the act of working and the objective one's trying to accomplish. I think it can be very easy for some people (myself, ahem) to conflate these two, and ultimately to come to view the act of working as the essential good. Seems like this has been coming up a lot recently ('The Busy Trap', etc.).

As I understand it, grogginess is associated with waking from deep sleep (no movement), not REM sleep.

I was somewhat skeptical after reading some of the reviews, but after using the app for a couple of days I was satisfied that they're not faking data. I tend to wake up easily and have been able to match occasions when I wake up to the graphs.
I've been using the app for a couple of months and I feel that I am groggy less often when I wake up (though this could be expectation bias). It seems to work much better when I am sleeping alone I or my partner are traveling, though maybe this just means I need to buy a bigger bed.
