As a solo developer of my own company I pay the price of my own bad decisions every day. A night with proper sleep opens the deepest parts of the brain with strong executive thinking, ability to see alternative solutions to problems, and better personality and attitude. I’ve come to a point where I wouldn’t let myself code if I catch myself wanting to watch movies (hint that my mind needs sleep) and would take a quick nap instead. Even 20 minutes of extra sleep when sleep deprived brings a different mind to the table. There are plenty of times when long coding sessions are necessary, but if you’ve had one sleep debt is the first that needs paid so your brain can actually move your codebase forward instead of introducing more problems.
