Crashing into a shin? We should be so lucky. The MEs didn't listen when I told them to back away during testing. One got smacked in the jaw with a van door motor when the robot went full reverse.

Anyway, sleep is the absolute worse thing you can do to yourself while programming. After sleep you are too energetic to sit down and code. You have to stay on the edge where you are too sleepy to run outside, but awake enough to code. Every time you sleep you are loosing the 8 hours taken by sleep, and 16 hours because your energy level is too high. If you keep this "good sleep" up you will never have good programming time. You must stay awake, and when you hit the edge, you must stay there. Caffeine helps.
