Surprised this post isn’t getting more comments. The result is pretty clear with over 10,000 participants in the study.

>>Total hours worked increased by roughly 30%, including a rise of 18% in working after normal business hours. Average output did not significantly change. Therefore, productivity fell by about 20%. Time spent on coordination activities and meetings increased, but uninterrupted work hours shrank considerably.

Sometimes I wish HN had a hard stop on posts that link directly to paywalled content. Feels spammy.

I love jargon heavy posts. I just dropped an hour learning about o3b, MEO, CPE, low earth orbit, data rates. This kind of googling leads to new hobby pursuits and some times new career thinking.

Fascinating watching this go down. It's like capitalism vs religion but the iteration cycle is months/years not decades/millennium.
