It’s not really the hours that means the most to me, it just gives me focus on it and help to avoid evening snacks. I get to a really nice phase of burning when I manage this properly for a while.
Edit: and I would never worry about an apple if I was hungry.
I’m actually opposite. I’ve always eaten early breakfast regardless of hunger since in Norway it’s supposed to be the most important meal of the day that sets you up for the rest of the day.
Lately though I’m trying to get 14-16 hours of fast every day (night), and it’s just easier skipping early morning than to have to go the whole long evening without anything.
I don’t do this fast because it’s supposed to be extra healthy or anything, I just do it because it seems to put my body into a good state of burning energy (combined with eating regularly and exercising fairly often), which is something I’d like to do more of currently.
I’m pretty close to yours - I eat one half avocado, two eggs sunny side up, and then a dash of mayo in the center of the avocado and fill it generally with shrimps. For me this keeps me full for a good while and I feel healthy and with a good stomach.
I usually only eat one full meal before dinner, but I’ll often have a banana, protein shake and apple as well.
If I’m working from home I try to wait with “breakfast” until there is a good pause between meetings, usually around lunch.
Microsoft at least used to famously “eat your own dog food “ during development of new Windows versions. This means that the developers themselves had to install the latest build and then use that while continuing development. This could lead to longer delays when crucial parts didn’t work.
AFAIK this trend started with David Cutler (legendary developer) and the development of the original Windows NT. You still need a fair bit of building blocks developed individually before you have something large enough to assembly to a build.
In those days, they sat mostly on OS/2 while developing parts for the kernel and boot system etc. Then some specifically precarious items to roll into the build and have everyone start using was networking, file system, and graphical interface. Bugs here hampered everyone (like, how do you create a new build of windows with new parts when networking / sharing files doesn’t work?).
Today I’ll imagine more development is performed on VMs so that it’s much less noisy when stuff doesn’t work. I’m sure at lot of developers still willingly or not install the version they are working on. However, it will probably be a little later with more working parts, and not updating every day etc.
