If you enjoy working at night and use Chrome, this extension has been a huge help for me(and my eyes):

Check out f.lux

[DustinCalim → whimsy]

I tried f.lux and do not like it at all; I don't think color temperature is the problem and my MacBook Air seems cheapened when it has a 1970s red tint to the display.

Since using Hacker Vision, I notice that I can turn my display brightness down to 2-3(again, a MacBook Air) which has the added benefit of giving me an extra ~40 minutes of battery life - very cool!

Everyone needs f.lux regardless of sleep patterns. Standard screens are just brutal.

The graphic designer in me screams in horror. Inverted colors in images? You stare at this for extended periods of time?
