This is actually a major reason I'm glad to work in software. The culture in the industry usually tends not to care about specific working hours as much, as long as you're around consistently and do good work.
Having been to a total eclipse before, it's really extremely obvious when it's time and when it's no longer time. It's very different from partial eclipses. You can easily feel the sudden lack of actual sunlight.
Edit: adding on, I'm pretty sure if you keep the glasses on during the actual eclipse you'll see almost nothing, because the outer fringes of the sun still exposed aren't bright enough to show through those lenses.
It's hard to decide any causation for me personally, but my fitness tends to at least correlate positively with my mental health.

A lot of people here have the right idea, but are just more pessimistic than me about the industrial capabilities of our civilization if we survive long enough to achieve them. Star lifting is an idea with what I understand to be reasonably sound scientific principles. It's just a matter of scaling our industry over the next millions or billions of years.
I like this channel because he's a fairly optimistic but very reality based futurist. He'll tell you straight up if something is unlikely or impossible based on our current understanding of science, but he's one of the few sources I've seen that acknowledges the immense scale that even an Earth or solar system bound civilization is capable of supporting with just modern technology.
A bed frame to get your mattress off the floor makes a bigger difference than you'd think. And having one that won't break and drop you is even better!
That said, I love IKEA bed frames.
Backblaze personal is $9 a month or $99 a year for unlimited backup. The first result on Amazon for a 4tb HDD is $85. Building a NAS costs the same as 2.5 years of this cloud backup for the drives alone, and doesn't actually give you a backup at all. The costs scale even more poorly if you need to store more than your 8tb.
It honestly probably solves all 4. The one in my city (unfortunately nowhere near where I actually live) has plenty of lathes and will happily teach you how to use them safely and effectively. Also, there's really not that much that goes into safely and reasonably effectively using a lathe at a beginner level.
Edit: well, I guess actually the money for a maker space membership can be non trivial depending on the space, so maybe it solves 3.
Not if you're mainly interested in counting multiples of pi.
I'll look into it a bit more. It does mesh with my experience, where I feel like different concepts just don't work with some people's brains.
Honest question, can you find something I can read about these studies?
