Why is this a bad thing? Less crowd is good for everyone. Is it not?

He can never be. No body can change castes. That's the worst part of vedas. Even Shivaji maharaj was not allowed to hear vedic verses because he was not from the priest caste. Modi is just an opportunist.
I am pointing out the cultural reason for the western readers who are wondering or puzzled by the support for the current ruling party, even at this dire situation which the government could have avoided. It becomes clear when one understands what the vedas advocate, the privilege by birth offers and why it is so important over anything else for the priestly caste.
It makes logical sense, is there any study to support this

Monitor size and keyboard are far more important than the process speed in my experience. The bottleneck is never the processor speed or even RAM, but mostly the human working memory and cognitive capacity. Bigger monitor helps the former and good keyboard helps the latter with less typos.

I came here exactly to say similar thing after reading for 5 mins and things got repetitive. Then i read the "about" section and found the author is from financial sector. I don't think i am going to get much value reading further.

EDIT: Reasoning below. A commenter asked the mental model.

Novel Insights are found when deepwork is performed over analyzing huge's volumes of data from multiple sources and thinking about the interconnections. I doubt any one in financial sector or the business types ever perform deepwork at all. There is really no new ideas or key insights that's worthy of deepwork. I think the success is mostly luck and unique to the situation which is beyond human control. When a financial person says they have 3 decades of experience, its the same thing repeated over and over again with no progress build over the previous work simply because that is not possible. For these reasons i think its not worth the time.

If Google saved that much money and the business didn't see a considerable negative impact (34% increase? Quite the opposite in fact.), then that news should be telling not just for Google, but for every company that previously catered to spoiled employees who jump on an airplane just to have lunch with the customer.

Two lies COVID has forcibly flushed out and helped dispel:

Lie #1: Remote work, cannot work.

Lie #2: Business travel, is a necessity.

It will be interesting to see how the corporate travel whores, spin this post-COVID in order to keep their Triple Diamond Medallion Platinum status.

Richard Stallman was right. Richard Stallman was right. Richard Stallman was hell right.
