Ask HN: Have you experienced a coding dream?

[mvarner]

Last night I had a dream where I was coding for a project that I've actually been working on (after I woke up I was actually able to implement the bits that I remembered, kind of cool!). As a child I would occasionally have dreams where I'd be on Internet forums that I frequented while awake. I'm curious if this phenomenon has affected anyone else.

I've done this before. I think sleeping allowed my brain to figure out a solution that I had struggled with for hours under pressure while awake. I can only recall this happening twice.
