There's a malaise in the air, in the tech industry and on LinkedIn (well, there's always a malaise on LinkedIn, but this is a new variety). People of all stripes are constantly restless, constantly busy but unable to dedicate themselves to any real, substantive work. We watch the hours on the clock pass by, thinking that they're going too slowly, scrolling social media or news and waiting for the terrible software that we're using to, inch-by-inch, do the job that it's meant to be doing. When we go home and try and tackle all of the chores that life imposes on us (of which there are an increasing number), we have to fight the same distractions and challenges. We're constantly interrupted by buzzes from our phones or pings from email or instant messages. We find it increasingly hard to care about whatever the work is that we're actually doing, and before too long it starts feeling like we're all losing our minds. Though it's impossible to pin down, there's some pervasive feeling that all of the bright, shiny little technological artifacts that we carry with us might have something to do with it.
