Does that mean I can have my waking hours back?
I’ve had coding dreams. Not bad for creative ideas, terrible for implementation.
I sometimes dream about a problem I’ve been trying to solve for a day or two. The dream usually gives me an 80-90% correct solution, I just need to connect some dots. I still remember dreaming of a kernel config issue, reading the solution on a trains timetable in a train station.
Wouldn’t do it everyday though.
Some years back I’ve practiced lucid dreaming and managed to actively control my dreams a couple of times. While it was an exciting experience, it was definitely not as relaxing as a regular night of sleep.
So I would say, the startup’s concept in general (solving work related issues while you sleep) might be doable but it would take away the night’s relaxing element. So it would be more like working all night awake INSTEAD of sleeping.
Someone will implement this to advertise to you in your sleep, guaranteed.
This headline was a bit of a rollercoaster:
“Lucid” - ooh cool car startup, what did they do now
“Lucid dream startup” - What do you mean dream startup?
[The full headline] - “Oh God no take me out of this timeline!!”
