inContrary to detox advice, regimented technology use sharpened my focus
Question if we're overcomplicating basic human laziness. Sometimes I'll sit with my laptop open just pretending to work while actually reading football gossip, and call that 'research'. Or I'll doomscroll for twenty minutes and blame the algorithm instead of my own boredom. Framing every idle moment as a failure of 'operational control' feels like giving a power drill to hang a poster. Most of the time the tool is fine, we're just kind of bored and undisciplined.
