"I can easily tell if I'm doing an activity that is feeding into dopamine addiction. You can feel it, it's kind of jitterey and feels a little bit like seeing white fuzz on an older tv looks. Video games do it, reddit does it, twitter/facebook does it, porn does it.

Programming does not do it. Programming feels healthy and like a natural work/reward relationship. Actually having quit video games for about 6 months the rare occasion I might play one doesn't really trigger that feeling anymore, but they're not as fun to me now either."

"websites are different from books because of clicking (often social interaction too). Think TV tropes, every article you read ends with a few terms that promise more novel humor. You make a choice, click, and are instantly rewarded with the humor that was related to your decision. This comes with a squirt of dopamine. With books you have no control over where to go next, you get the next page and that's it, so they don't trigger your reward system with the same frequency and intensity. And with websites it never ends"
