Nowhere is safe (lemmy.world)

People spend one-third of their lives asleep. What if employees could work during that time … in their dreams?

Prophetic, a venture-backed startup founded earlier this year, wants to help workers do just that. Using a headpiece the company calls the “Halo,” Prophetic says consumers can induce a lucid dream state, which occurs when the person having a dream is aware they are sleeping. The goal is to give people control over their dreams, so they can use that time productively. A CEO could practice for an upcoming board meeting, an athlete could run through plays, a web designer could create new templates—“the limiting factor is your imagination,” founder and CEO Eric Wollberg told Fortune.

why would an engineer write code

it may be faster to make your own tool than put in a ticket to your global support team and then the 20 meetings on documentation and validation asssuming they go it this year. Just for something you could have made yourself in a week. Request like add a pull down to the ordering form takes like a year and that's after 5 calls and a presentation on how this will improve global sales. So much frustrating.
