    I know this is a joke but it made me think how messed up it is that we’ve outsourced recognizing our own emotions lol

    Also, now a bunch of companies have tons of data on when and where we feel things

      There’s a reason the only smartwatch I’d allow health tracking on is the Pebble. I really don’t like the idea of a corp having realtime heartbeat info on me.

      You say outsourced, but it’s not like (men largely, but probably everyone) were super in touch with our emotions previously.

      The “take a minute to breathe” thing is on a timer; it doesn’t react to detected emotions.

        No, but the “Your heart rate is above 120 and you don’t appear to be moving” notification does.

      now a bunch of companies have tons of data on when and where we feel things

      Only if you choose devices that require all data go through their servers, like a garmin.
