so if you didn't know, humans need sleep. and lucid dreams are more being awake than being asleep neurologically speaking.

so this company wants people to basically stay awake 24/7. sure, that's gonna work out just fine. no problems here.

"lucid dreams are more being awake than being asleep neurologically speaking."

Could you provide a source for this claim?

[–] KpntAutismus 4 points 11 months ago

don't have one. but i heard someone cite a study where people who lucid dream a lot are generally less rested even after sleeping 8+ hours. from that i drew the conclusion that lucid dreaming is basically dreaming, but more awake.

People I think forget that REM is Rapid Eye Movement sleep which is the part where your brain is actually rewriting itself and setting new pathways but doesn't let your body feel well rested.

We need a mix of all things and we have already done studies that people can actually keep awake and working with intermittent resting with no actual deep sleep let people generate muscle mass and stay healthy right before their brain goes insane from the lack of true sleep.

This sounds so dangerous and antithetical to a long lasting healthy work force if this tries to get normalized that it will likely cause a forced evolution of our species by the people that can't maintain that dying off.

Can confirm, experienced many exhausting months of rebound REM after becoming sober from alcohol

Shit sucks

Have narcolepsy, can confirm. The body is rested, but the brain so sleepy.

Just wait till they start hallucinating, that'll teach 'em. :/
