The correct way is to lie on your side, facing left. Because prevents gastric acid in esophagus.
edit for clarification: This method is efficient primarily when the lower esophageal sphincter (I had to Google the correct name) is not functioning as intended.
When will these bugs be fixed? I prefer to face to the right and would also like to be able to sleep on my stomach
The GitHub human branch maintainer peaced out forever ago, all attempts to establish communications aren’t going so well and the issue tracker is piling up…so probably never
I mean if it’s abandonware it’s ethical to reverse engineer and open source the reverse engineered platform, maybe even fork it and provide some sort of extensible framework for various plugins, or convert the kernel to a new architecture or even virtualize it. Hopefully we can also work out the bugs and the more glaring issues soon (looking at you, upright vertebrae).
We’re working on it, but the mf was on something, have you seen the digestive system class? Or the central nervous system class?
Some people have mirrored internal organs, so this advice may be the ophosite for you. But also, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, sleep however’s comfiest for you and lets you get the best sleep you can
O.01% of the population, roughly 1 person in 10,000. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situs_inversus
So about 800,000 people world wide?
Sure, round figures, lets call it 800K. And I bet the vast majority of them knows. It doesn’t take much of an examination for a doctor to determine location of heart and liver.
In fact many of them don’t, since the body is mostly symmetrical and apart from cutting them open or doing an MRI, you can’t really tell (which isn’t a big deal in most cases, because most medical procedures work regardless of this condition). Also, the heart is located almost in the middle, so there is not much difference.

False. The correct way to sleep is on a 7-11 sausage roller set to high speed.
- The heat lamp creates warmth which you normally substitute with a dangerous choking blanket
- the high-speed spinning flings off your sweat to keep you cool using Bernoulli’s Principle instead of energy-hungry and dangerous fans or AC units
- the constant flow of vomit and other effluvia helps you maintain a healthy figure instead of ridiculously augmenting your life with the high-risk activity of “exercise.”
The throat anus, for those not used to the medical terminology.
I’m curious how accurate this is considering there’s rarely ever air in your stomach so what is the point when it’s effectively vacuum sealed.
As a side sleeper with GERD. It’s accurate as fuck. Before I found a medication that worked properly, I always slept on my left side.
facing left
On your left side. Whether that’s “facing left” or “facing right” depends on whether you’re comparing it to being on your front or on your back. Personally, I instinctively compared it to front, which would mean being on your left is facing to the right.
So the way to be clear and unambiguous is to say which side of your body you’re referring to.
It’s your left, not the left of the dude living in your attic peeping down at you.
i go to bed laying on my side, turn to slep on my stomach, then on my back, and once i’m actually asleep i look like this:
Don’t sleep, it’s bad for you . Just keep working.

Go ahead and cc everybody on this one, it’s needed.
Bacta-tank is the best
Floating in the diaper tank
I thought that was just to bring his internal temperature up to get Luke warm.
Sleeping on matter is detrimental to your health. To avoid back problems, learn how to sleep while levitating 3 feet off the floor.
Sorry, but sleeping in levitation has been found to be detrimental to your health, you need to sleep in a 0g environment
I genuinely sleep in a hammock and have done now for years.
It’s not levitation but it is great.
Legitimately the best sleep I ever got was when I had a hammock. It takes a bit of adjustment, but once you’re used to it, it’s so easy to wake up. I haven’t felt fully rested since I replaced my hammock with a bed
How does one legitimately sleep in a hammock? Ain’t it about as bad as lying on back and both sides at the same time, but also with fear of falling out or hammock itself falling down?
A properly built hammock is sturdy enough that it isn’t gonna fall down, and because the middle of it dips down with your weight, the sides come up sort of like a bowl and hold you in. Sleeping on your back isn’t actually that bad, and once you get used to it, you figure out how to spin slightly to one side or the other for comfort.
For reference, I was sleeping in a travel hammock meant for camping every night for about a year, I weighed over 200 lbs at the time, and even after the canvas started to tear at the seam, it never actually failed. The only reason I got rid of it is because the tear started to grow over the course of about a week.
Edit: also, for safety, I had a couple old comforters under it to cushion a potential fall, and an old pillow underneath my head for more protection. Never ended up actually needing them, but it’s an option
That’s a smart safety solution!
Gotcha, thank you
i hate to be the bearer of bad news but air is still matter
Sleep on antimatter
But only very briefly.
Best sleep of your life.
Bold of you to assume I can control how my body moves while I’m asleep.
Living is a disease at this point.
Terminal, in fact.
You need to be slowly turned on a rotisserie.
Optimal sleeping position depends on where the dog is in the bed.
Is… Is that an euphemism?
Not to a dog owner…
Oh good, I’m not the only one who rotates in their sleep like a rotisserie chicken
I sleep on my side. I can’t sleep on my back or front :(
I can help you with that ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I have no idea what I meant, but it was dirty as hell.
Nobody knows what it means, but it’s PROVOCATIVE.
If I sleep on my stomach I can’t move my neck the next day, right side my right hand goes painfully numb, left side my left hand goes painfully numb, back both hands go numb. There is literally no position I can sleep in that I don’t wake up after a couple of hours and have to shift to a different position.
Dude, my arms kept falling asleep at night. I randomly mentioned this to my physical therapist (I was there after a knee surgery) and he put me on a massage bed and pulled my head. Not like some quack chiropractor, but just slowly pulling my head, stretching my neck. Fuckin problem went away and never returned. Closest thing to real magic I have experienced.
You know the solution, you just have to sleep while spinning in place.
Sounds like you need to lop an arm off. Or dig a hole in your bed. https://odditymall.com/arm-slot-mattress-designed-for-side-sleepers
It seems like a good idea, but holy crap those CGI examples are the most unhinged shit ever.
It’s like they don’t know how arms work.
Damn I guess I’ll just levitate
doctor frowning and shaking his head, like this is a bad idea
You know what’s fun? The post-surgery “you always sleep on this side? Learn to sleep on the other one because you’re going to be this way for weeks, motherfucker” sleeping position.
I had jaw surgery a few years back, and I had to adjust to sleeping sitting up (believe me, the surgery made me tired enough to be able to do that) for several weeks because I couldn’t risk messing up my jaw while it healed.
Did you sleep in a chair, or sitting in bed?
Sitting in a bed with lots of pillows and blankets to prop me up. I was basically in a sitting position.
I sleep suspended in a vat of gel medium.
