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.

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.
