It’s hot. Not something friendly like sunny or warm. It’s hot. Think of white hot charcoal, a furnace, think of burning air and lava streams. This is what it feels like. Good thing we have a new coffee machine. Not. We’d need a chest freezer with crushed ice now. So this is summer. We’re not used to these kind of temperatures in Hamburg. Usually good weather in Hamburg is when the rain falls vertically. Interesting trivia: Hamburg lies to the north of London (as far as latitude is concerned) and has more rainfall, too. But: the city is full of canals and has more bridges than Venice (although there aren’t any places to sit in the shadow at the canals anywhere). It’s still the nicest city and Game Developer Capital of Germany. It’s just … hot!

A nerve-wrecking week has passed. Worst nighmares had become true. Our coffee machine was broken.
As you may be able to tell by interpreting this highly complex chart from American Scientific there is a close relationship between productivity and coffee. Have a look at the slope in the morning and see for yourself how coffee verifiably increases the incline. Also, lunchbreak is but a light dent and in the afternoon productivity stays high.
Today, our new coffee machine was shipped, installed and coffee was immediately implemented. All is well now. No-one had to die. We are all thankful we survived this terrible time.
