I'd love to have an accessible chill out place I could go to just to get some work done, preferably with a good view of something. No music playing, just quiet and the ability to get a coffee and simple food if necessary.
Google Campus in London does this, but isn't that comfortable for long periods (plus it's absolutely packed).
It is considered an entirely acceptable system because the "cost reimbursement" will fully cover the cost of wear + tear + fuel, meaning that a drive across the country can be rendered effectively free for the driver.
Also, "without any income for the driver" isn't necessarily correct - if you have a full car you will make a tidy profit.
Edit: the cost of a blablacar trip to a passenger would be on the order of 13-16 euros for an hour's drive. Comparable or cheaper than a train, with more flexibility.
While we still measure a person's worth out of how much they make, this is going to pose an enormous problem for all of us. We can't just take away people's livelihoods for the benefit of a few (us, to be honest).
There will be a violent reaction, as there has been every time this situation has arisen throughout history.
In contrast, Amazon's phone service is great. Get yourselves sorted google.
This doesn't actually provide contact to the existing ground pin, so you have this issue.
DOORS is good for tracking and tracing requirements, but from what I can see doesn't do code parsing. This may have changed. However, my opinion of IBM software is irreparably broken so I don't have a huge amount of trust in it.
We use Reqtify to glue requirement documents to code. It also sucks, but I think it's still powerful. You just need to set up some regexes which can recognize your requirement identifier style and you're good to go.
Whoever comes up with a solution to glue DOORS requirements to Jira issues to code seamlessly is going to be fairly rich.
