guzey

This is the protocol for my sleep experiment that I will start on 2020-04-30. I will not sleep for 75 hours and will evaluate the effects of doing so on my cognition using SAT (a 3-hour test that involves reading and math), and Aimgod custom scenario I called guzey_arena_0.

I'm going to attempt the SAT after 72 hours of no sleep and will live stream myself here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsdHM1vjjes

Methods

I'm going to remain inside throughout the experiment.

I will work, play video games, watch movies, browse the internet, read, walk around the apartment, do sports, and try to stimulate myself in other ways. However, I will not use any medications and any psychoactive drugs (caffeine, nicotine, etc.). I also did not use any caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, and/or medications in the 2 weeks before the experiment.

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

Extensible Scalable Coopetitive High Availability Trade Optimization Network: ESCHATON

I am the Eschaton; I am not your God.

I am descended from you, and exist in your future.

Thou shalt not violate causality within my historic light cone. Or else.
