Technically just after midnight hohoho. But in keeping with the spirit of the question, one hackathon that I went to had a fairly weird schedule and we ended up getting home at around eight-ten AM so I slept then.
If someone could push a button that would make the world perfect, it would be easy to argue that they'd have an obligation to do so. At the same time, most people would agree that you can't expect any given person to devote their lives to making the world a better place and shouldn't think too harshly on those that don't. Between this spectrum, where (if anywhere) do you draw the line as to where a person has a moral obligation to better the world, and is this point different for yourself than it is for others?
