How does it beat coffee? No acrylamide?

Takes mere seconds to ingest, unlike the lengthy brew → drink procedure

This. No need to undergo normie rituals and self-deceptions ("I like the taste of coffee") in order to pretend you're not addicted to stims, because as a rationalist you're comfortable with the truth. Thus you're empowered to get your fix for pennies a day.

Does brewing your own coffee add up to much more than that? I legitimately enjoy coffee with a lot of sugar

Is your post satirical? It has the exaggerated tone of

do caffeine pills absorb as well as from food/drink sources?
how do pills compare to sprays, transdermal patches and water-dissolving powders?

It's the "bluetards" guy, he's a 1.0 rationalist instead of a cool postrationalist metislord

What if I unironically like the taste of coffee, though? Half the time I'll drink decaf to be able to binge it without desensitizing.

Drink decaf for the taste and take caffeine for the pep.

>self-deceptions ("I like the taste of coffee")

I like the taste of coffee and I drink decaf because of that. I try to keep caffeine for times of need (ie all-nighters).

Modafinil is more optimal than caffeine.

If you hate coffee so much, just drink tea, or coca-cola, or red bull, you mongoloid.

It's not to "pretend you're not addicted", just taking it in a pill is fucking joyless. A rationalist who's advanced beyond Straw and Spock knows that doing things the most robotically efficient way isnot always synonymous with winning.

>If you hate coffee so much, just drink (multiple for the same dose) drinks that require preparation or have harmful side effects
Why would I do that when I could pop a pill?

>Just taking it in a pill is fucking joyless
A rationalist who's advanced beyond being irrational knows better than to commit the typical mind fallacy. Taking a strange white pill to get stimulated is a fun placebomantic ritual, reminiscent of taking a Real Stimulant and the associated excitement.

Not to mention the obvious point that such a rationalist can dedicate the saved time to having fun in a more, yes, efficient way than fidgeting with coffee like some wannabe barista.
