I'm probably around 1500-2000 a month, but I respond to maybe 2% of them. Lots of automated messages saying I / someone else updated a project that maybe I need to glance at, and lots of random groups I've been added to that I mostly just need to be vaguely aware of in case something specific comes up.

What was the plan for CNN+ out of curiosity from someone who paid zero attention to the idea. Was it just going to be more talking heads saying news type things over and over or were they planning on doing...idk documentaries and such?

I've got notifications turned on for JIRA tickets and Confluence pages I'm watching, which inflates the number, but including those and also meeting request notifications, I'm still at only about 60 a week. I use filters heavily to sort stuff into different boxes so I can ignore a fair bit of it.

I'm probably more like 8-900 work emails a month and responding to a quarter of those at most. My work inbox hacks are to create two redirect folders as soon as I get my legs under me at a new job: one for messages where I am only CC'd, and one for messages from automated senders. Does a pretty good job of cutting through the clutter.Vertical Lime posted:https://twitter.com/Variety/status/1517166034092007425 This is the first time I've heard of this service tbh

CNN+ was literally CNN without news. All the non-news CNN content you love. Cable company contracts prevented them from broadcasting any news via the service.

FizFashizzle posted:Someone please explain to me what cnn+ was supposed to be My hypothesis is that originally it was going to be live cnn plus the back catalog. This went into works and before they launched the cable companies gave them a call and threatened litigation over contractual rights to breaking news. They already have everything ready to go, so go ahead and launch with the intent to shut down in a month. That way they cover the contracts of the people working on it as much as possible.

I've got 90K in my inbox/folders for the past 7 years, so just over 1000/mo that I felt I needed to save for one reason or another. I probably delete more than half of what I get, I'm on so many lists so actual incoming volume is probably in the 2-3K range. it sucks.

I’m sitting at 400 unread emails after being OoO for 4 days. Maybe 20 of those are things I actually need to work on or am interested in. MailChimp and Constant Contact are a pox on humanity.

I wonder why "multiverses" have become such a ubiquitous storytelling technique in recent years. Is it speaking to some feeling a number of people may have that we're living in a version of the world that's somehow "wrong", or less desirable than other conceivable realities? Or is it just, "oh neat, this can make my Indiana Jones/Nathan Drake slashfiction a reality!"
