This algorithm also works if you replace modafinil with cocaine or caffeine.

If we are going there we could also try:

  • Injecting ourselves with pure adrenalin.
  • Stealing then consuming entire shelves of energy drinks.
  • Putting our hand in a waffle maker.
  • Driving excessively fast through traffic.
  • Sex in public.
  • Picking fights with gangsters.

Not having seen the movie, my reaction to this list is "what is sex in public doing there? the others seem like stupid, pointless things to do."
Which perhaps says too much about me.

Are you saying cocaine wouldn't work in the original algorithm I was commenting on? I'm pretty sure it would.

I didn't say that. Are you saying that any of the above alternatives wouldn't work also? Pretty sure they would too.

I don't think putting your hand in a waffle maker would work.
