Heβs not a bitcoiner π₯ or anything, π but i π think his ideas actually π align well with the beliefs of π― bitcoiners.

But according π₯ to Newport, π the π― most productive π€ of us donβt actually π work as many βhoursβ as we might imagine. Rather, they take a lot of time off to let their mind wander. π When they do work, their mind is distraction-free. And they π₯ take breaks.
