I have had "hacker's hours" for the past several years.  My roommates
haven't had a hard time sleeping (as I was always on the computer while
they were sleeping).  As for me, I found it best to stay up until I really
was tired (it usually takes me around an hour to fall asleep unless I am
dead tires), and only then go to bed.  I tried to get to bed before my
roommate got up, or while he was out (once asleep. . .).  Also, having
a loft makes a world of difference.  If there is a light under your
loft, your roommate can use that while you are sleeping.  Also, the best
way to get around it is to have a roommate which accepts your wierd
schedule and stays somewhat quiet (or even out of the room) while you
are doing that unnatural thing called sleeping.
