Lately, I've been reading about how the internet affects our brain and this is a good addition to that collection. It is more academic than Deep Work by Cal Newport, but Newport's is more motivating. I am glad I read Newport first and followed it up with this one, which gets more into the neuroscience behind why it's a good idea to do that deep work. Don't see me much on social media these days, this is why. I used to have hobbies and interests that over time, were pushed out due to too much time wasted doing things I don't really care about. It made me feel like crap. I am loving the boundaries I'm setting with internet usage and I'm seeing results. I'm also making headway on projects I've been having difficulty getting through.

One minor quibble: This is not an informal conversation, it's a formal book. The better word choice in this case is "addictive." The number of times "addicting behaviors" is mentioned drove me to the brink of insanity, but for many, that may be overly picky.
