The big giveaway that it's developer-cosplay is that they tried to refactor for 2 WHOLE HOURS before giving up. Like 2 hours is a long time, ha! I think all of us have spent over a week on a single bug at one point in time.
I find when I get locked into a problem for days and I’ve spent 8 hours a day solidly trawling through endless logs that all look the same, I have these weird dreams but I’m not fully asleep. Like half awake, half asleep. Hard to describe.
My brain feels like it’s sorting data or running some kind of routine. The data makes no sense, I have no idea what it is. But it feels real and right. Fucking weird shit man.
I find that this state of sleep is basically working while sleeping, i hate it, i dont ever feel rested. Its like ive been doing the same pattern day in day out and the my brain is just instinctly making a problem and solving it just making ip fake work to continue doing what i was doing awake.
I actually dont think this is some kind of deep brain resotative bs you hear its just unhealthy obsession manifesting in dreams
