If you, like me, spend long hours at night in front of the screen, please do yourself a favor and install the Redshift package immediately.
You will not regret it.
Would be nice if you'd elaborated. Who is responsible for it, where does it come from, what does it do specifically, etc...

Redshift is simply a background service which adjusts the warmth of your screen color depending on the time of day. As the hours drag away into the night, they will move deeper and deeper into a warm, reddish shade (hard to describe, try it out), which is very easy on your eyes. I find it much more comfortable to work with it.
You can find the devblog here: http://jonls.dk/redshift/
The program itself is available as a package, just ask PackageKit to search for "Redshift".

I've yet to see any data saying it has any medically measurable effect, while taking a break, going and doing something else, or going to sleep definitely do !
Its a nice package but I'm not sure its as useful as a regular break

These are luxuries for overworked students, so we are happy for any technical alternatives ;)
