The most immediate effect is that come 8pm I&#8217;m absolutely spent. But on a more positive note, I do feel that I have more time available to me. It&#8217;s odd because this time seems to have just magically materialized out of nowhere. But honestly it&#8217;s probably the time I used to spend lounging around the house in the evenings doing nothing. By waking up earlier I feel more focused and have time to read <a href=\"http:\/\/news.ycombinator.com\/\">Hacker News<\/a> and even do a little reading for work!<\/p>\n<p>On the topic of reading for work, we&#8217;ve been studying various message queueing technologies recently. While most people at work seem to be enamored with ActiveMQ I&#8217;ve gone off into the weeds and have been reading through the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zeromq.org\/\">ZeroMQ <\/a>guide. If it&#8217;s possible to fall in love with a toolkit then I&#8217;m officially smitten! I haven&#8217;t gotten a chance to do anything beyond reading about it at the moment (my time is a bit short), but conceptually ZeroMQ seems to have so much potential! Maybe it&#8217;s just that<a href=\"http:\/\/zguide.zeromq.org\/page:all\"> ZeroMQ&#8217;s guide<\/a> is so well written? From the ZeroMQ Guide:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00d8MQ socket is what you get when you take a normal TCP socket, inject it with a mix of radioactive isotopes stolen from a secret Soviet atomic research project, bombard it with 1950-era cosmic rays, and put it into the hands of a drug-addled comic book author with a badly-disguised fetish for bulging muscles clad in spandex. Yes, \u00d8MQ sockets are the world-saving superheroes of the networking world.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That&#8217;s right at the\u00a0beginning\u00a0but the humor continues throughout the document. When you&#8217;re reading about implementation patterns \u00a0that might be applicable to your network topology a little bit of humor is always welcome.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, time to go do some more reading. I&#8217;ve put ZeroMQ aside for the moment and am going to start reading up on RabbitMQ now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Even though I didn&#8217;t think it would be possible, I&#8217;ve actually started waking up at roughly 5am every morning.
