Attention hijacking becomes micro-habbits that become a rourtine. After just a few days, it becomes very difficult to undo, even if being aware of what's going on. This is what I understood from Tristan Harris several years ago and it's still happening today.

"bootcode.bin: This is the 2nd Stage Bootloader, which is run by the 1st Stage Bootloader which is embedded into the RPI by the manufacturer. Runs on the GPU. Activates the RAM. Its purpose is to run start.elf (3rd Stage Bootloader)."

Last time I checked several weeks ago, 2016 SE looks like it wasn't going to get it. This is great.

Location: San Jose, CA | San Francisco Bay Area

  Remote: Yes
  Willing to relocate: Possible
  Technologies: C/C++, Go/GoLang, CAD, AutoCAD, Computer Graphics, Cloud Computing & IoT

Looking for a short term contract (few weeks) with option to permanent hire. I think this is a great way for companies to hire a great fit with minimum risk.

Over 5 years C++ Programming Experience in CAD software. In production release for over 10 years.

On my 2nd chromebook computer but likely moving back to mostly to Windows because of WSL2.

Just 1 of many benefits: build native Windows GoLang app from WSL2: (Caddy server)

env GOOS=windows go build -o caddy.exe

No need to setup gcc in native Windows. Not sure if this works on all GoLang apps, but at least works for a reasonably complex Caddy server

Maybe good option to test out a small iOS dev side project. Average 10 hours per week will cost around $500 per year.

"Attention Hijacking" apps and websites along with FOMO leads to over-consumption of digital information or even digital addiction. It is subtle, micro habit forming that turns into part of daily routine. Overtime, it turns into "learned helplessness."

I'm seeing a lot of exponential technology. If Jeff B. takes more risk and focus, it could be possible. We'll see.
