Years of on call duty meant I was hyper-attentive for phone notifications for so long, it messed w/ my brain (phantom alerts, hearing ringtone still increases heart rate). Much of society is now on call, subject to phone notifications and I worry about the damage it's doing.

Avoiding this damage was a big reason I replaced my smart watch with an analog one and it took me many weeks to retrain my brain to stop looking at my analog watch for notifications that weren't there.

@kyle this is a big part of the reason I do not have work email on my personal devices and refuse to carry a work phone. My team can contact me on Matrix or Signal in a true emergency (and the cases that meet this definition are well defined).Still, I have some extra sense that wakes me and says “the things are broken” with a lower false positive rate than most monitoring systems. One day perhaps I’ll even figure out how to put that in silent mode.

@kyle like mother's that have children with smart phones. Mutually destructive.
