Agree with the other commenters - it's not sad to admit to designing your environment in a way that is conducive to good habits. I use something similar to the timer container method as well. Our brains are plastic, and there will only be more evidence showing how phones have significantly altered them.

I don't disagree. I won't pretend to know how I would act if limiting porn consumption was actually implemented. But ignoring the thousands of people who self-report an ironically similar addictive experience you just described, but for porn, is dismissive and self-centered.

I don't appreciate the insinuation. The level of severity should not gate how people feel about this specific issue.

I didn't say ban. Unless you're for kids drinking at age 9 we're on the same page. And it's more than a few people at this point.

Not sure if you were saying this ironically, but I firmly believe limiting the consumption of porn would be a net positive. The negative effects are at best overlooked, but normally twisted, and the average age of first experience with porn keeps dropping.

It still seems wild to me that, after discovering most of the judges who voted for Qatar to host the World Cup were bribed, everything proceeded as planned. Sepp Blatter was objectively corrupt, and Infantino is no better.

I often come back to this quote by Vivek Murthy, former and current Surgeon General of the United States: "During my years caring for patients, the most common pathology I saw was not heart disease or diabetes; it was loneliness."[0] Always strikes me that the issue was so noticeable even four years ago.

I love how they still buckle the seat belt across the empty front seat.

It's already been happening I think. One of the core members of the team who built the music recommendation features left a few years ago https://notes.variogr.am/2016/11/16/leaving-spotify-the-echo...

I'd ask a Uyghur but they're in Lake Laogai
