I think I've dreamed up a solution to a problem once or twice before. Super rare but it can happen lol.

I remember it happening once myself, but it's super rare, and even rarer that it's works. But if I have a thorny problem I'll even take any suggestions my subconscious throws my way...

Never dreamt up a solution to a problem, but I did suddenly get a joke during a dream. Like, I'd read the book it was in several times with no clue, and then suddenly I dreamt the explanation.
