I'm currently in "do a week's worth of work in 2 days" hyperfocus. Building up my nest egg for the next time my brain says I need to spend several days spending less than 15 minutes on actual work.

    My brain decided I can't do that anymore. Worked in software for 10 years now and it's just fucking gone. Can't do the hyper-focus thing anymore.

    It probably doesn't help that my company is supporting a genocide in Gaza.

    Oh, well, I got laid off a month ago anyway. Basically, spent the last year not doing work at my company so I guess I deserved it. But, really, the company deserves to be convicted of supporting war crimes; so I guess I did the moral thing.

    I really hope the hyper-focus ability comes back. I can still do it with other things. Just not with job searching yet. Wondering when that will kick in.

    Edit: Microsoft for anyone wondering.
