macOS ships with a command line program called "caffeinate" that disables the sleep function of the laptop. With this background knowledge I was immediately able to assume Amphetamine is a more powerful program that provides the same results. With this background in mind I find the name to be clever.

- lb504 6y agoThat's funny because Apple maintains Coca, which is the name of the plant source of Cocaine. The Coca plant is controlled/regulated by the DEA exactly like cocaine is. So by following Apple's example in Apple's ecosystem it is okay to name things directly after drugs.
