Added 2023-03-31 16:21:14 +0000 UTCI recently learned there’s a new trend on social media: monk mode. It means cutting out distractions and going into self-isolation to become more productive. It’s supposedly based on science and particularly concerned with avoiding social media, because that’s addictive. But can social media really be addictive? Does the monk mode work? And what’s the science behind it? On Saturday, we'll sort it out.

2023-03-31 18:23:49 +0000 UTCAccording to the internet, monk mode can change my life in just a week -- so I can be better than I was before, better...stronger...faster (which of the old farts around here get this reference?).

At least, until some employees started using it as a vacation house.
