Magic of Ballmer’s Peak

Have you ever been programming with a couple beers and noticed, “WOW, I’m on a roll!!!“. This is due to Ballmer’s Peak. There is a point of being not drunk enough, and too drunk. Us programmers want to be right in the middle. Some people say this perfect programming limit is between 0.12% – 0.15% BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration). View the graph below to see how many drinks you need to hit Ballmer’s Peak.

Remember, for Ballmer’s Peak to work, you need to be in front of a computer, NOT IN A CAR!!
