Interesting points, but I don't think the conclusion follows. In your example, if the number one song is classical and made up 0.1% of listening time, would you conclude that class…

Maybe it's just best to let go instead of trying to mini-max your life's productivity, train yourself like Pavlov's dogs with XYZ productivity systems, and guilt-shame yourself ove…
