i don't usually drink energy drinks, but i like red bull sugarfree.

how can you like anything that is sugar free?

because it has no sugar!

hf w/ Aspartam.

The health problems associated with refined sugar are just as bad.

turkish coffee 1:3 , 1:1 , 2:1 and 3:1 coffee to water ratios
lots of different teas
some odd energy drink we have here called magic once every few months

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club-Mate or coffee. Mate is easy to get if you're in Germany or near it.

espresso

all of them
none of them work

wow, great pic!

black cat is so awesome!

The problem I find with energy drinks is finding that balance. Its either yeah I feel something but I want more... and then the flip side okay yeah Ive had to much (and im shaky now). lol

And as to effectiveness I think its more of the rate at which you consume the caffeine. But I donno.. Its hard to test because depending on how you feel and what ever state you body is in, you probably can get different results. :/

i dont drink any kind of energy shits, mostly because they taste bad + kinda mess up your body...

when i have night shifts i drink like 4-5 coffees tho

water

Redbull for the win.

What do you guys prefer for concentrating and keeping you awake? <-- a good nights rest?

Seriously don't make stuff keep you awake, you'll just lose focus like mad (regardless of how long you can go). And for concentration just eat an apple or something which has a nice organic sugar in it just before you concentrate.

I was just about to ask why no one is contesting this. Nice to see reasonable people on this site :D

the funny thing is that most people on this site think that I'm not.....

Some people might even think you're weird!

I doubt that ;)

i dont lose focus when im getting tierd, quite to opposite actually. i get more productive and my attention to detail is higher than it would be in a well-rested state. thats last between hour ~18-24, after that i lose it and im below my average self.


btw, the apples we have at home are too big. the last time i tried one i was disgusted after finishing half and i dont like throwing away food \:D/

how old are you that you're tired at ~18-24 ?
I'm a lot more active in the evenings as well but there are many other explainations for why that happens.

i didnt mean 18-24 CET or other timezone, i meant being awake for hours 18-24 :D im at my somewhere around 28th hour atm, and its just recently im starting to slow down. ya, im hardcore like that.

ahhh... well that's kinda unhealthy and you probably don't notice that your productivity drops because your mind tricks you.

no, sir. i do believe thats incorrect. i woke up yesterday at around 11:00 CET, did my usual lazy stuff etc.

at 04:00 i began making a custom crosshair, and i noticed a pattern i was unaware of earlier, that if you create a cross in the center of your screen the vertical height/2 and then divide that 2 times by itself, gives you the correct value of placement (something like: 8/2 - 4 - 4:D:D:D), and same thing works for horizontal lines.

obviously, by looking at my broken setup, i seriously lack education in math:DDD

now, either i was very lucky, but i started to noticed other pattern when i was testing the crosshair. when my enemy dodges more to the right i hit less than if he would be more dodging left.

i also gave a very detailed list of my thoughts regarding someone i provice to be hacker here on ESR forum.


all that over the course of a few hours, and its not the first time i start sensing these changes as im awake for a longer period. and really, right now it feels like i could pull off another 30 hours D:

Your statement is also, I believe, a commonly held belief that people assert as truth without even reflecting upon it. Brings my mind to a swedish TV-show called "Fråga doktorn (Ask the doctor). Nothing like that super crappy american show on the same theme. There was this guy, mid 50s that said he slept on average 3h per night and had done so for 20 years. The doctor said that it's uncommon but some people have that low of a need for sleep. I firmly believe that growing teens need to sleep way more than full-grown adults though.

My firm belief is that this too, as most every phenomena in our world is very individual. I sleep roughly 5h on average and I feel well rested most of the time. If I get drowsy in the middle of the day, I just take a power nap. The key, I believe, is to listen to the signals your body sends out. If you feel great after 30h wakedness, by all means, carry on. But if you feel like crap, go to bed, even if you usually don't feel sluggish after that time period.

Depressed people for instance often suffers from hypersomnia (oversleeping). That's not because they have a huge need for sleep, just that their mind is fucked up and they cannot get the proper rest they need no matter how much that person sleeps.

ow it's definitely true that people can do with different sleep patterns etc.
Including a lot less time than other people do.

However strangely enough these ppl do all have consistent sleeping times. As in they go to bed at 2 and wake up at 6 for instance (for someone that sleeps 4hrs). To stay awake for longer periods of time than 20 hours is usually a bad thing though.

Although if you live in complete darkness (aka no day/night lighting) research shows that most people have a 25hour cycle in which they sleep 2 blocks of 3 - 5 hours (usualy adding to a total of 8).

However... what is wrong (and unhealthy) is that he 'gets more focussed if he stays up longer' which is just false. As soon as your mind goes: "hmmm I should prolly get some rest". You don't gain more focus if you drink energy drinks.

Sounds like you are more well-read on the subject than me :) I agree completely with the points you made, energy drinks is really a stupid and somewhat dangerous invention. I wouldn't mind a ban on it, for realz. Also, ban fireworks while you're at it :D

I have fairly irregular sleeping patterns but it's not extreme.

hehe... well I have a broad interrest in the world ;)

But a ban on it would be a bit overkill imo. But people should realize that theres no magical way to continuously stay awake and that if you try to force yourself to stay awake you'll most likely get sick.

It can even result in death (especially if you stay awake trying to focus for longer than 72 hours). Ofcourse it doesn't have to... but it has happened.

Yeap, I am generally against prohibition in all of it's forms but I don't see the problem with banning energy drinks. It's possible to produce normal soda that tastes exactly the same. Energy drinks are getting more packed with weird chemicals all the time. They get cheaper too and they are sold in large containers.
