It makes perfect sense to me. One of the attention regulation difficulties with ADHD is a tendency to get sucked down deep rabbit holes, and it can be extremely derailing in terms of productivity, and then consequently for morale. It's difficult to predict and often impossible to control.
In Xe's case, they figured out a way to turn the results of those unexpected, unwelcome trips into something of recognized value. Settling into this role likely provides relief from a periodic feeling of helplessness and self-loathing.
How is the original title inappropriate? How is it unclear what the article is about or why it matters?
- latchkey 4y agoPersonally speaking, I'd remove the word 'weaponizing', it is the unnecessary catchy bit and distracts from the more important ADHD portion of 'hyperfocus'. That said, the rather rambling aspect of the blog post itself doesn't convey hyperfocus at all to me. That said, the way the title is now, seems most appropriate, it is simple and conveys the content of the post. I see that the blog post on the tailscale website is also marked as 'personal'... and I'd argue that a corporate website isn't the appropriate place for a blog post like this. It is the first post marked as such, so maybe it is an experiment to see how it goes. I'm all for that, but this seems like a big miss to me personally.
