I fall asleep extremely quickly no matter how well rested I am. It's not based on how tired I am but rather the approach I explain the post.

Your entire post reads like satire, but I don't think that was your intent. You're fall prey to the illusion of progress, the belief that by doing silly life-hacks and pushing yourself, you're increasing your productivity. That might be partially true in the (very) short, but enough research has been done to verify that all you're doing in extreme harm to your body and mind, and you're setting yourself up for a major burnout.
I wake up at the same time every day, and go to bed at the same time every night. Basically, I start getting tired when I'm getting near my 'bed time' and I use that as a cue to go to bed. Since I'm very regular with my routine, I rarely have any sleep issues, and I get around 8 hours of sleep per night. If I'm sick or something, I might get tired in the afternoon and want a nap, but that's fairly rare.
That said, I totally agree that his post screams of shortsightedness, and in fact, seems like satire in order to call people out for their abysmal work habits. It's too bad, but based on his comments, it seem he feels forced into this. Hopefully once his startup is fully started, he'll be more healthy.
