This thread is peak HN. People even suggesting amphetamines.

You could try what the rest of the world without a burnout-inducing work culture does: take a 15/30 min nap.

Or just eat a smaller, healthier lunch.

Also a lower GI lunch. To me, a lunch comprised of mostly protein and fat pretty much nullifies the slump.

Walking for 15-20min after lunch can also help.

Even better, fast until later in the afternoon.

Meta commenting really isn't interesting to read. Also, more people have suggested naps than amphetamines in this thread. Naps aren't a great solution anyway.
