Ego depletion is not just disappearing, it’s turning negative

To save other from googling it as I did here is the wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ego_depletion

"Ego depletion refers to the idea that self-control or willpower draws upon a limited pool of mental resources that can be used up. When the energy for mental activity is low, self-control is typically impaired, which would be considered a state of ego depletion. In particular, experiencing a state of ego depletion impairs the ability to control oneself later on."

Maybe someone else can summarize what this article is trying to show because it was lost on me.

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be humor or not, but this post doesn't add any valuable insight to the paper it's citing. Of course a linear fit is not the right approach here.

What is the short version of why ego depletion isn’t actually a thing, or a link about it? This is one of those ideas that is still making the rounds.

thought 'ego depletion' was debunked years ago
