Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Thanks for sharing, this is incredible.
Deep work changed my life. I went from studying ~10 hrs per day during college and getting nothing done to mastering algorithms for software engineering interviews in ~5 hrs of deep work per day for a couple of months.
My notes on deep work for anyone interested. Really recommend trying out this practice.
What are the books on boredom that Cal has been reading? He mentioned he got three of them. What were they?
Obviously deep work is ideal, but I find that as a network/system admin in Education IT I rarely have the chance to go into that deep work mindset.
I guess what I'm saying is shoutout to those generalists out there.
My plans for tonight just changed. Love this podcast.
Thank you Lexapro, A deeply moving and thought provoking podcast.

Thanks Lex, great episode.
One small, tiny bit of hopefully constructive critisim: Clubhouse, we get it, you like it. Probably don't need to spend 10% of each podcast talking about it :)

Interesting - so deep learning is akin to meditation in some way? As in, there is a process you can follow?
Looking forward to listening to this one -
