Perhaps more than any other, Elon Musk has a tendency to publish it – and it seems that this includes its obvious insomnia.
As a flag of politics and sports analyst Nate Silver, a graphic composed of Economist This traces Musk’s tweets from 2014 to November 2024. He illustrates in detail how often a billionaire publishes – and since it is not possible (still) to tweet while sleeping, how incredible is a little sleep.
With small red dots, the graph not only outlines the fruitful production of Tesla and SpaceX owner by date, but also during the day. As his twitter has become more frequent in recent years, his short window with “off” hours when he is probably sleepy.
Not surprisingly, these gaps in Tweet Times also became shorter and more unstable after he purchased Twitter in the fall of 2022, as the graphics are clear. It was also like Economist Noted when he began to deepen seriously in politics, publishing regularly – and in time disagreement – about freedom of expression, immigration and what he calls the “awakening virus of the mind”.
While the middle man is inclined to sleep approximately when the sun is down, Musk’s hours do not follow conventional models. The alleged insomnia occurs according to the shrinking empty spaces in this Economist Tweet Chart, to sleep most of the between 3am and 10am – in those days when he actually stops tweeting and at all falling asleep.
These gaps in the diagram seem to be moving with previous remarks that the billionaire made about his sleep habits years ago, when he was still something curious about the public imagination, not a man happy for the trigger that had happened today.
Speaking of a full sending podcast in 2022, for example, Musk said he usually sleeps until 3 in the morning and usually gets around 9 or 9:30 in the morning. The next year he acknowledged CNBC The fact that receiving less than six hours took a fee for his mental state.
“I have tried [to sleep] Less, but … although I am awake for more hours, I do less, “said the billionaire in May 2023.” And the level of pain in the brain is bad if I get less than six hours. “
In the years after this recognition, it turns out that Musk withdrew further and further into this lack of sleep, which he admits is bad for him, which, according to the accounts given to biographer Walter Isaxon, were caused by stress and would often lead to intense nausea and vomiting.
Depriving sleep is no joke. It has been used as torture against prisoners and can lead to severe health problems, including death; It is known that receiving insufficient rest, such as musk, causes a gloomy combination of brain fog, mood swings, unpredictable behavior, paranoia and even psychotic symptoms – and this is without entering Musk’s drugs.
The worse is that Musk seems to be forcing this unhealthy mentality of “all work and without rest” on his undermining in the Ministry of Government (Head). He has been reported to have moved a sofa beds for his boys to the staff management office – the same thing he did when he took over Twitter in 2022.
“Dog works 120 hours a week,” an employee selected in early February. “Our bureaucratic opponents optimistically work 40 hours a week. That’s why they lose so fast.”
Unfortunately, we do not have an updated DOT matrix graphics like the one from Economist For Musk’s tweets, since Trump re-took office-it is clear that he had entered this chaotic period after the election in a state of deprivation of sleep with rage, and now we all suffer from the consequences.
