frustration means i need to take at least 12 hrs break from it, to refresh my perspective and find all the semicolons and such iv missed,
but anytime i do any kind of math or lengthy reading for that matter, has always bored me to the point where i will yawn and yawn. my eyes get heavy and I loose complete interest, a little hoot, nothing crazy so i cant think, you do need alot of short term mem when coding!, just enough thou helps to ease the pain!
I can see how using Ians trick would work, cept for me personally i spin out way too fast, for me a single shot right before bed ensures i wake up for my alarm clock, otherwise i sleep through anything.
reminds me of a story i saw on tv about 15yrs ago, on OMNI1, Lucy Zillio would come out with these little 2min tidbits of interesting facts, my fav was:
THE WORLdS OLDEST BUDGIE, lived to be 21yrs old, average budgie life is about 12yrs or so, in this budgies case when he was about 11 or so the owners noticed that he looked a little droopy and down. So the owners decided to put a drop of brandy in his water dish, the bird went over to have a drink, an apparently liked it, since he perked right up to his normal self. From that day on anytime the budgie looked a little down a drop of brandy was used to perk him up again.... almost double his natural lifespan.
