Going on an Information Diet

• p2detar 7y ago
  > Schedule your content consumption. I tried that one in the past. It didn’t really work for me. Scheduling is hard and humans do not seem to be good in doing things by the clock. Distractions come easily. I gave up. Now I browse HN until I’m fed up with reading. Instead of carefully organizing reading lists & bookmarks, I just deleted everything. I unsubscribed from almost all newsletters. Even after that there is still a lot of information noise around. I think we haven’t really evolved for this and we are at our limits as species to cope with the Information Age.
