The more tech you integrate, the more paper cuts
Quote
I love technology. But I also hate technology at the same time because it's so – the more you integrate it into your life, the more you start to have death by a thousand paper cuts.

Summary
Dave loves and hates technology. The more you integrate into your life (home automation and the rest), the more you suffer death by a thousand paper cuts. When you're young the dopamine lets you overlook the annoyances; as life and responsibilities grow, those small frictions become real pain. Generally there's too much technology in everything.

Technology is a two-edged sword, man. Yeah. I really do hate, in my younger years, it was exciting enough and dopamine, what's that word, dopaminergic enough? Yeah. To where you just sort of get, you overlook the frustration and the annoyance.

I think we just have too much of this stuff in our life. I mean, even podcasts, honestly.
