All algorithms are set up to get you to click the stuff that gets you to keep clicking. People believe the wildest shit nowadays. This can include otherwise smart people. "Information overload" isn't a thing. When presented with a resource with information, what people do is offload their cognitive load. They don't need to memorize a bunch of things because they can just look them up. This frees up mental effort for other, often more creative, tasks. --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] ...
