Wait what you guys get dopamine from doing work?

Clarify your values, and understand why you want to work, and what you want to work on. This takes time.

Dopamine comes from new stimuli! Anything you can do to dig up new projects or do things you don't know how to do yet? You need stimulation and/or rewards to get that hit. Hard to make yourself care about things you no longer consider "rewards" if you've aged beyond them, but adding new ones will do the trick...

And he’s using one of the rooms downstairs as a home office. We bought this house so cannot move in the short term.

Hello,
I’m a junior data scientist and in my current job I mostly code using Pyspark (no machine learning) so I would like to work on a side project that could leverage my profile and data science/ML skills. What project would you advice me to work on ? (it can be a kaggle project, or a classic task that you do at your job, or a paper that you read).
I’m overwhelmed by the many suggestions online and would prefer to get a suggestion directly from professionals.
PS : I’m not a beginner.

When it comes to your job search:

1) How often/much do you get feedback from recruiters or whoever you just spoke with? Feels like we're always in the dark. One way feedback street.

2) Who do you like to work with? Headhunters vs internalrecruiters? Is the experience different?

3) Have you had to align your interviews so that the offers would come in close/same day? What's your strategy?

4) What's your process in weighing [multiple] offers? If that ever happens? Where do you keep your notes?
