Not 100% on-topic, but I find the ways I experience information overload are relatively old-fashioned: ex. while working on a project where there's so much more I could research. Wonder how many others encounter it in diverse ways which might determine which alternatives they use

Wow, algorithms are real unpopular. Probably because of so many bad ones. I always put Spotify forward as proof that they can actually be good, and music perfectly fits the information overload archetype.

Algorithms are good for discovery (“you might also like...”) but always alongside other discovery methods, and there are a ton of discretionary filters to clear before you reach actual consumption.

So we shouldn't waste time coming up with robust proofs or design better algorithms or have a wider range of interconnected interests, we can just blindly follow people with high social capital.

Breadth until an interest fully engages, then depth until I get it out of my system. In related news, I am currently approx. 10 episodes deep into the “Haiku Chronicles” webcast.
