Cal Newport on digital life

Cal Newport argues that the internet promises connection while engineering constant distraction, and that deep work—the rare ability to focus without interruption—has become the most valuable skill precisely because it's become most scarce. His work suggests that reclaiming attention isn't about willpower but redesigning the systems that fragment it.
