Something I observed from reading the comments here:
A lot of us can function on much fewer hours of sleep regularly and don't believe it adversely affects our performance (It does affect mine though). Does anyone think there may be some selection going on here?
What I mean is, perhaps it's true that HN's distribution is more skewed toward the side of people who need less sleep (and hence has more productive hours in the day) and are willing to sleep less in order to get things done. Maybe we don't really represent the general population.
Just a warning in case anyone takes our testimonials too seriously.

Since burnout and perseverance are such key topics (and emotionally dependent ones), maybe heroic sleep deprivation is an under-recognized threat to entrepreneurial success.
