I forked this question from this comment at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1811024.<p>"While thinking about this on a plane to England, my mind makes the natural leap from my motley collection of python functions to turning down acquisition offers from Amazon and being invited to talk at Davos"<p>It would be interesting to know if PG/Why_/RichHickey/Norvig kinds indulge in day dreaming? My understanding is that this is a natural thought process, so would occur to all.<p>OR<p>would it be the case that all the accomplished are so engrossed that they don't have brain cycle to process these kind of fantasies?<p>I shouldn't be doing direct questions, but in this context, cannot resist. So PG: Do you indulge in day dreaming?
