> Let's not fall for a superficial definition of "intellectually interesting".
Sure. Can you provide some examples of what's allowed and not allowed then? Because "anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity" actually covers each and every topic in the world. When you exclude one topic, you're actually demeaning people who find that topic interesting.

Yet another bad-after-sale-support story. Why is this on HN? If you go stand at any laptop brand service centre, you'll hear 50 such stories everyday.

Either there is more to this story, or the OP went to one illiterate customer care guy. OP should go and show them the official website and maybe make him/her talk to a customer care executive over phone.

You either have an account, or don't. First one says you have, second one you don't.

Thanks for making that app. I'm too brain-dead to sort the options otherwise.

Agree to what you said. Right now my mind is too distracted to think about what I want to do in granular level. But yes, doing something meaningful is always top of the list. It helps me get motivated to think that what I'm doing will help others.

That's a lot more encouragement than I hoped for. I was just confused if doing what I want is right or wrong, if not having a greater goal is wrong. I have some clue about it now.
