Was it more productive, objectively speaking, than being consistent and not dealing with the constant drainage due to severely lacking sleep?

The logic was that I could have 36 hours uninterrupted, and then sleep for like 12, averaging 6 per 24 hours, which seemed reasonable.

It’s a recipe for burnout, but I did get a lot done. A good protocol for very tight important deadlines, but it took its toll.

Toll noticable only back in those days or even in the future?
