2025-02-11 21:53:33 +0100 | <ski> | i wonder how much difference there is, wrt ordinary REM sleep |
2025-02-11 21:52:34 +0100 | <geekosaur> | frontaltemporal stuff is being "awake"-active |
2025-02-11 21:52:21 +0100 | <geekosaur> | yes, ime it means your conscious mind isn't fully resting |

2025-02-11 21:51:38 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Bowuigi> Lucid dreaming is pretty cool but doesn't it use extra resources or something? I would like to use my sleeping time to sleep (tho it can be useful) |
2025-02-11 21:50:28 +0100 | <ski> | (if you get into a habit of doing such checks, you often tend to extend that habit into your dreams. and then you can notice the discrepancy, and realize you're dreaming, and so become lucid) |
2025-02-11 21:49:39 +0100 | <EvanR> | readable but not necessarily legible xD |
2025-02-11 21:49:36 +0100 | <ski> | people use that issue with text, and also e.g. watches, as a "reality check", to make it more likely they get a lucid dream |
2025-02-11 21:49:16 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Bowuigi> When my dreams have text (not often at all) it's always readable |

2025-02-11 21:48:55 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Bowuigi> Haven't had the text issue tbh |
2025-02-11 21:47:52 +0100 | <ski> | (dreaming about chatting IRC is also weird ..) |
2025-02-11 21:47:41 +0100 | <geekosaur> | when I was having lucid dreams due to a prescription I was on, I found that from a distance I could understand what something "said" as a concept, but looking at the individual characters they were essentially random |

2025-02-11 21:47:22 +0100 | <ski> | yep, mauke. ditto with mirrors, as well |
2025-02-11 21:47:15 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Bowuigi> Also, how we remember a dream changes as time passes. If our brain inserts a generic human somewhere, after waking up it will try to coerce that NPC into someone we know, modifying our memories destructively |
2025-02-11 21:46:59 +0100 | <ski> | (i've also had dreams pondering programming or math problems. but those (for me) tend to be more abstract, not like you're in a 3D environment at all) |
2025-02-11 21:46:31 +0100 | <EvanR> | memory palace |
2025-02-11 21:46:28 +0100 | <mauke> | it doesn't go well |
2025-02-11 21:46:25 +0100 | <mauke> | nah, I've tried to read things in dreams (text, diagrams, etc) |
2025-02-11 21:46:01 +0100 | <ski> | i've heard some engineers have been able to generate a "real life" model of a design, in front of them, in a lucid dream, being able to move around and view from different angles, adjust and modify things to see how it seems to work out |
2025-02-11 21:44:16 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Bowuigi> But technically, if you had control over most of your dreams you can learn new stuff. Specially since pattern matching becomes easier. Sounds useful for CT |

2025-02-11 21:41:31 +0100 | <mauke> | do dreams live in volatile ram? |

2025-02-11 21:40:31 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Bowuigi> AFAIU we have many dreams per night, but we usually don't remember all of them. Even if we do, they kinda blend into a single story, yet another explanation why dreams can be so weird |

2025-02-11 21:38:55 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Bowuigi> You would need to dream about this new topic AND remember your dream later |
2025-02-11 21:38:47 +0100 | <EvanR> | that's what I was getting at |
2025-02-11 21:38:29 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Bowuigi> Learning stuff while sleeping is likely possible, but so hard it's not worth it |
2025-02-11 21:37:19 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Bowuigi> EvanR Sleeping already mutates the physical structure of your brain, that's why we sleep |
