Thread: discovery in my dream

Hi,


I don't know where to write this but it's very interesting to me how my dream-brain discovered a neat trick. So i play a game called GTA pretty often and sometimes people find glitches, they spend hours trying different methods to find glitches. A few weeks ago one was patched which I used often and randomly lastnight i had a dream where I casually did that glitch using a slightly different method.. I woke up, tried it and it worked flawlessly! My question is, how did I know exactly what to do in my dream in order to get that glitch to work? I wasnt trying to do it in my dream, I just casually did it like I knew how. And I havn't even thought about it while I've been awake.. impressive imo

I have understood concepts after sleeping on it or dreaming about them. I guess you can sometimes figure stuff out without conscious distractions. Usually if I dream about math it is nonsense like (c/(h/@))^Tuesday. It is exhausting.

I doubt that anything like this will ever happen again. When I was 23 I had a life changing encounter with an old work colleague which I had dreamt about the night before. Or not - who knows how the mind really works? I'm convinced that some are convinced they were taken up by aliens but I'm not convinced that aliens exist - even though I have seen a 'UFO'. See what you experienced as an interesting glitch or an avenue of the psyche to be further investigated.
