There are some comments here pointing out that some effects in the article (post 30 hours of sleep deprivation for example) seem out of proportion.
If you are comparing to times when you did not sleep and "felt" you performed well, please keep in mind that your "feelings" are also affected by the same lack of sleep.
You might be thinking you are driving great, but compared to how your drive when fully rested, you are probably not. But you brain does not process or acknowledge this fully since it is deprived of sleep.
Your mileage with lack of sleep will surely vary, but to think you are not affected (without formal tests) will be the exact result of lack or sleep - thinking/reasoning is impaired.
