notes from yesterday:
priyanuj choudhury
internet addiction
brain imaging, compared to traditional drug addicts
how different from traditional academic work
doomscrolling, smartphones, youtube videos, youtube shorts
foraging
search pattern
it gets repeated
you want to search for the reward
how does worksheet interdict the pattern
provided alternative reward
forces unplanned activities to be marked ahead of time with the start time
in the mind you have imaging of what was on the worksheet
visible distraction from the addictive activity
mental distraction
self monitoring self-criticism
john - the addict as the expert in self criticism
how to not think about the implications of time allocations?
maharishi guru to beeetles practiced 15 min a day, from lived experience,
he was instructed from first grade on how to do this, part of the informal “curriculum”
surprised on the curriculum

I think the way to document the confersation is to build a table with three columns:

Topic - John Discusses - Priuyanuj Discusses
