   I've been thinking about this issue for a while now. The term I like for what we are experiencing is "information obesity" (and I've written about it here: http://andrewoneverything.com/information-obesity )

   Relevant: http://andrewoneverything.com/post/43840346900/we-will-alway... I don’t think there will ever be a way to make a “big decision” with thorough analysis that will make you certain you made the right choice. There are too many variables to ever know for sure the “right” choice

   I see this as a dichotomy between people who are doers vs thinkers/creatives[1] If you are a thinker/creative and not a doer, you need to align yourself with a doer, in order to make great things happen. [1] http://andrewoneverything.com/its-the-music-stupid

   I have a term for this: "etime" [1] (the product of time and mental energy). Both are necessary to get anything done. [1] http://andrewoneverything.com/post/43544648479/i-dont-have-e...

   That's what inspired this post: http://andrewoneverything.com/dude-its-a-laptop-you-want-not... and the subsequent discussion here (can't find it right now) Your point on lower tech support costs stands, though :)

    > You look like you're going to spend your life having one epiphany after another, always thinking you've finally figured out whats holding you back and how you can be productive and creative and finally turn your life around. But nothing will ever change. That cycle of mediocrity is'nt due to some obstacle.Its who you are. This is precisely what I've realized about people and famous cliches like "you can do anythin…

    I call the effect smartphones are having on us "Information Obesity" [1]. Just like when food was scarce and people ate as much as they could, and now that food is abundant many people can't limit themselves to sensible amounts, a similar thing happened with information. When information was scarce, we consumed as much as we could, and now that it is abundant many people can't limit themselves to sensible amounts, a…

    I wrote about this a while back, after watching a PBS documentary on domestic spying. Basically, it seems to me that the US could one day turn into a totalitarian regime with no way back [1]. Maybe it's overly-pessimistic, but once all the total-surveillance tools are in place, if the government ever turns totalitarian, it will be extremely difficult to overturn it [1] http://andrewoneverything.com/post/43837476217/…
