| Dec 12, 2010 at 18:58 | comment | added | SingleNegationElimination | Caffeine is certainly one of my biggest productivity boosters. It actually helps me focus much better than I do without. But I think finding the right balance on this is a highly personal thing. For me it's best to have a big, hot cup of coffee in the morning and not much else until the afternoon, then it's tea only. If I deviate from this I'm sure to slow down. | |

| Oct 12, 2010 at 16:06 | comment | added | Michael H. | Coffee machine on the desk is a bad thing. I speak as someone who spent a summer in a windowless two-person cubicle with a coffee machine and an inexhaustible supply of cream & sugar at arm's length. That was when I learned what waking upon the weekend with caffeine withdrawal was like. | |
