After reading this article I feel more confused about the point it's making than anything else. Of course there are plenty of things written about how to avoid boredom, it's a symptom of not having anything to do.

The article does attempt to touch on how low-cpu tasks are not often mentally enriching tasks, but that point is more about how to get more out of the time that you aren't bored, not what the title suggests.

Boredom hits hard for me, I find it physically uncomfortable, I get an ache in my stomach that grows and grows. For me, boredom is certainly a problem to be solved, by doing things that are stimulating, not by dwelling on it.
