It's proven that people are more productive when they're happier and extending time to them to live their lives would go a long way towards that. Lol if we put any stock in right-wingers/captains of industry paying attention to "studies". Buncha commie liberal eggheads telling us our sons wanting to be girls is okay.

It's proven that people are more productive when they're happier and extending time to them to live their lives would go a long way towards that. i can't recall where i saw it, but i thought i saw a study relatively recently that showed 40 hours seemed to be the actual best workweek productivity-wise. basically, as people work more per week their productivity per hour goes down, but obviously there is a point where working less hours decreases your "output" more than increasing your efficiency for the remaining hours can make up for), and that seemed to show a maximum total worker productivity around 40 hours. i.e. you work 35 hours, you'll probably produce less per week; but if you work 45 hours you probably will also produce less per week. but the obvious question is, what's the cause and effect - did we wind up at a default of 40 hours because through trial and error that's turned out to be best, or is it that because 40 hours is the 'default' that sets expectations around what makes you happy and what you have, over time, been trained to optimize for as a worker?

With how many inside sources routinely talk to the news, if he had a bottle of rot gut whiskey or Uncle Vlad brand vodka in his desk, we would constantly hear about it and he would constantly say he doesn't drink.

eke out posted:by mid-november we'll know about like half a dozen new major crimes that also have to be investigated as well i am somewhat torn between the "investigate it all, then dump a billion charges on the senate" and what seems to be the current strategy of get this one serious crime fully investigated and drop that single crime on the senate (and the public), but i think I come down on agreeing with the current strategy: if the senate (and public) is willing to look the other way on the ukraine crime, where there's just no loving defense, additional crimes aren't going to move the needle. additional time to let republicans get their footing and come up with a strategy and try to browbeat romney back into line, on the other hand, might - as will putting more and more stuff in the indictment, letting republicans pick whichever crime they feel most comfortable defending and focus solely on that as their basis to aquit/the only thing they'll talk about. all in all, it's an indictment of our political system that's the correct calculation, but i think it's the right one given the circumstances: the democrats have the advantage here and need to exploit it in a timely manner.

Pollyanna posted:Whatever happened with yesterday’s deposition? What did we learn? I believe the witness was someone who was testifying about the mechanics and legality of holding up the Ukranian military aid, and the main testimony was "there is no legal way to do it that doesn't involve notifying congress". Wasn't a blockbuster, but wasn't expected to be either.
