Multitasking & Micro-Mini Naps

Summary

The content discusses the author's personal journey with Medium's clapping feature, leading to the discovery of a multitasking technique that involves micro-napping while clapping.

Abstract

The author begins by admitting their initial reluctance to clap the full fifty times on Medium articles, due to the perceived effort. They progress from clapping once, to multiples of three, and eventually to fifty, initially not realizing the efficiency of holding down the cursor key for rapid clapping. Amidst sleep deprivation, the author accidentally napped during a clapping session and awoke refreshed, leading to the development of a unique "Multitasking & Micro-Mini Napping System." This system is humorously presented as a potential moneymaker and is described as safe, preventing any harm if one naps beyond fifty claps. The author concludes by expressing gratitude to readers and offering a lighthearted benediction, while also addressing a tagging preference for the audience.

Part One: Clapping 50 Claps on Medium

I’ve read that people on Medium don’t like clapping 50 times because it takes too long. I’m embarrassed to write that I was one of the peoples who clapped less when I first started and afterward too.

In the beginning, I thought I could only clap once. I got that it was a dopey thing I was doing. Then I did superstitious clapping in multiples of three.

Then 50 claps. Imagine punching the cursor key 50 times. My finger got restless leg syndrome, wait no that’s not it. It’s Repetitive Stress Syndrome. Then, duh, I got that I could hold the cursor down and the fifty claps came faster.

But not fast enough.

Since this whole sleep deprivation thingy I fell asleep during a clap fest and woke refreshed before reaching fifty claps.

This is true multitasking. Napping while clapping.

So I’ve been experimenting with my new technique the first ever truly Multitasking & Micro-Mini Napping System. Eventually, I will market it and make big money.

And it’s safe — because if you nap beyond 50 claps you don’t get electrocuted or something like that.

Thank you for joining me in the adventures that span nanoseconds. May whatever your looking for — find you, unless it’s gross. If it’s gross — toss it. If it’s grate bake a cake.
