I'd expect it to be a training session with admin privileges. Similar to a robot vacuum learning the layout of the house and mapping maybe? Just with added steps based on where the washing machine, detergent etc are located.

Great photos and blog post. I hope other locations on the site would be populated with similar content in the future.

In some risk averse environments, when a critical decision needs to be made, part of the consulting does is take responsibility and be the party that can be blamed later in case things go south.

I was trying to point out that the productivity has been steadily increasing without an obvious benefit to the workers (such as pay increase), so basically workers have been producing more without getting a larger share of that increase. Therefore, keeping all the other things constant, reduced workdays might be a benefit for that increased productivity.

This feels like the inevitable next step in how the internet has been changing for the worse during the past decade. Almost all user space is limited to 'platforms', endless time being spent on never ending scrolls curated by dopamin-optimized empty content mixed with ads, dumbing down results and coercing user traffic to pre-approved safe viewpoints. I think things will get worse and worse, early days of novelty has unfortunately lost against the hyper commercial internet we now have.

Such an interesting experiment, makes one think what it might be like to be an octopus.

When you think about the increase in productivity per hour worked, a four-day workweek makes even more sense: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/labor-productivity-per-ho...

I think this assumes you would feel the effect of PFAS in the first place. What's scary to me is we're just not evolved to feel PFAS at all.

I'm disappointed to not see chickens there! I like thinking of them as little descendants of dinosaurs.
