Website of the day: Get a better night’s sleep with this calculator

Did you know you can still be functional on only four hours of sleep? It’s not ideal, but, in a pinch, it can be done — as long as you fall asleep at the right time, that is.

This incredible calculator from Sleepytime works by analyzing your sleep cycles and counting backward to determine the ideal times for you to fall asleep. When you wake up mid-cycle, you feel groggy and drained. If you wake up between cycles, you’ll feel much more alert.

A solid eight hours is always best, but this is a good resource to have up your sleeve, just in case.
