It's the opposite that is usually happening to me: I go to sleep thinking I finally solved some problem. When I wake up, literally the first thought is a clear counter-example on which the solution does not work. It's frustrating.
- gspr 5y agoSame here! Or the realization that the whole fascinating idea for a solution is completely ill-posed :-(
- TeMPOraL 5y agoSame here. It's particularly annoying when I thought through a problem (and perhaps slept on it too), figured I have it solved, started working on it, and then one day, halfway through the implementation work, I wake up realizing the design is broken.
