I think the point of my comment got lost a bit. It's like when I start diving deep into technical work, my head spins. I get zoned in, later fatigued, and I think there's some behavior change. I notice this even in the short term. Sure you could work on both (and most devs are now), and it could just be how people spend time developing their skills, but I feel there was something more there. I felt a growing disconnection from normies that went away when I changed my habits. In the short term it would be like an acute thing that wore off in a few hours to a few days. If I was doing it long term, it would last longer. Maybe it's in my head. I don't think everyone is effected.
