Not. Use nanosleep(2) instead. Beware the fine details:

       Compared  to  sleep(3)  and  usleep(3),  nanosleep()  has the following
       advantages: it provides a higher resolution for  specifying  the  sleep
       interval;  POSIX.1  explicitly specifies that it does not interact with
       signals; and it makes the task of resuming a sleep that has been inter-
       rupted by a signal handler easier.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
