Coding while you're drunk
Hi,
What do you think about coding while being drunk (up to a degree, or down to a degree, matter of view :)
It mostly works with music, but...
I remember coding was flawless and came by 'instinct' while I was moderately drunk sometimes.... how come... I'll never now...
It would be really interesting to see releases from coders breaking down ther brains to bare thoughts then building up intuitive wonderful things...
Kinda paradoxon, but might work. I think there are coders who never drink beer/whine...then what about meditation or coding just after wakin'up?!
Let's imagine: Drunk Demo competition :) LoooLler...
(of course there's no way to check drunkenity, but I don't care :)
now, shame on me for bringing something like this...
but I might code a demo as a result... who knows... |

3-4 beer, tone down the rational mind, and just code like instinct like when composing music from thin air, it works good for me.
maybe not at all for some. :) |

Hehe. I remeber doing exams while (still) drunk from the day before. Usually we brought our books over to the pub and "studied the day before" and surprisingly it went ok. I imagine it has something to do with the brain being less inhibited while under the influence (same goes for you taste in partners etc.).
Personnaly I had the biggest eureka moments while sleeping. Remeber one night I woke up I had figgured out how to code "bobs" after a long time of pondering about it while awake (Yeah I was like 12 or something).
I use the same tactic today, where if I face a seemingly large issue, I just "sleep on it" and after a full night defragmenting or what the heck the brain does, things has fallen into place.
This being said, Yes- I like coding and stuff when I'm drunk 8-D
Gives a whole new meaning to "Happy Coding!" |

Quoting HermitI think there are coders who never drink beer/whine
I doubt there are coders who never whine. :P |

I guess there are some.
I think Soci is one, but what about HCL.
I'd be interested about a drunk HCL demo while he's drunk, what's more, while his child hits some random keys and after all creates a world record from vein/genes :) |

From now on, I'll be having nightmares about being beaten in democompos by HCL's toddler..
/me wakes up screaming!! |

the only way to get code from doc bacardi at all is to make him piss drunk =) |

Night birds, night birds ;)
Doc Bacardi! Be drunk as much as you can and code those wonderful codes...
I got a Hungarian lyrics for Dane's Dazzler while I was asleep (from him I guess ;). I continued the text after wakin'up. Of course it was not as good while awake, but it might come out somewhere soon...
It started as something like "We had aaa hause, but suddenly we looost the keeey of it..."
What about Xbow or Clarence?! No way! I they start to code while drunk I guess they would get 16 sprites per scanline. That would mean the destruction of the time-space continuum and the end of the world, according to Mr Brown...
(Apart from jokes, many inventions have come from the unpredictable results, but it might be the same as subconscious mind, which does not exist without people...) |
