    I pulled together some great tweets about addiction in normal startup life, like being addicted to working hard, being productive.

    What do you think? What's your strategy to live well instead of chasing the old high?

    Oh no, not this again. Dopamine isn't the thing that makes you feel euphoric, that comes from opioids.
