How to get back into reading fiction/long form content?
I read technical manuscripts (think arxiv.org) pretty frequently, try to emulate new ML papers based on these papers. Also like to read Wikipedia and old newspaper articles - I feel like I "read" a lot but I just constantly get a sense that I'm missing out from an experience that was possible from before computers. Anyone have any advice?
What kind of experience you are missing from fairy tales? You can take any fiction book and read it from side to side with ease, bun no fiction book reader can take a whitepaper and read that few pages with understanding. So, you have to proud that you can read the real things. Keep doing that, please.
