Cognitive Offloading
If you have ever tilted your head to perceive a rotated image, or programmed a smartphone to remind you of an upcoming appointment, you have engaged in cognitive offloading: the use of physical action to alter the information processing requirements of a task so as to reduce cognitive demand. Despite the ubiquity of this type of behavior, it has only recently become the target of systematic investigation in and of itself. We review research from several domains that focuses on two main questions: (i) what mechanisms trigger cognitive offloading, and (ii) what are the cognitive consequences of this behavior? We offer a novel metacognitive framework that integrates results from diverse domains and suggests avenues for future research.

With Bridgy from @anew.social connecting protocols, this isn’t competition, it’s momentum. We’re stronger together, so let’s build the social web humanity deserves 🚀
while the permissionlessness vector of atproto will certainly enable new things we can't imagine the pattern of "____ but on atproto" is key for taking our daily lives back. a framing i prefer is "i can now do {boringDailyLifeThing} without {shittyExtractiveApp}"

i would like to see more atproto apps that aren’t just “already popular app, but on atproto”
Oh, a way to share links and community blog posts. A great idea! We can share our homework 👀 discourse.atprotocol.community/t/moving-atprotocol-dev-off-o…

hello this is my take on discourse: i don’t think hiding atproto or keeping it out of normie’s view is right. you do have to meet people where they are though, which is why starting with “atproto…” is usually not the best idea (usually =/= always). but atproto **is** a selling point and leaving it
