I read that study when it was first reported and my conclusion was that the firm in question is overstaffed.

I think you're closer to the truth than the researchers.

Given that I spend most week nights in hotels, I can only agree.
On one (long) contract, they agreed for me to do four longer days and have a three-day weekend, and it made a huge difference.
(Tip: go for working Tuesday to Friday -- it makes the weekend feel longer, and the work week is almost half-way over after you've done one day)

Not only that... the satisfaction of knowing that is Monday, switching off the alarm and turn around in bed to sleep an additional while... it is priceless.
(Floating time here and the possibility to exchange worked time with free time 1:1. If I do a big weekend where there is nothing special, I usually take Monday off)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

In New Zealand, they can afford to do these kind of studies.

I used to work four day a week for a decade - was really good, especially that it enabled me to ask for an atrocious payment to add a fifth day...
(And I do not do more work in five than did in four - but do not tell boss)

Google acquired the .dev top-level domain when ICANN opened up the web to new generic top-level domains (gTLD) a few years ago. For all you devas
$12,500?!? I guess 'extortion' isn't 'evil'?

techcrunch said: there’s also Kubernetes.dev
Wow. Great site.
They should have just bought geocities.dev.
Or put it in the .dik domain.Kent Sharkey wrote: (typo intentional)
Um, I'm having trouble figuring out the logic of that.
You must have a .dev brain.

I think he "mis-typed" : "all you devas" --> meaning divas.
But this is a guess.
Also, I looked those up and there is a $3,500 premium on any .dev site. Yeesh!

Sure, but typos are, by definition, unintentional.
It's dev logic.
Don't expect it to be understood by anyone else -- even other devs.

Pedant is pedantic 
I guess I should have said, "That's not a typo?" Or just ignored it and waited for people telling me that I misspelled diva and/or I shouldn't have made reference to the Devas?

Some space mining is set to take place, courtesy of Japan’s Hayabusa 2 spacecraft. I hope they're prepared to shoot the two smaller asteroids that will result
And hopefully the UFO doesn't show up around then

Microsoft will begin rolling out SHA-2 standalone updates for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 in March in preparation for its July 16 implementation deadline. There's a new way to shut off Windows Update, if you need one

But isn't not getting windows updates a safer way to live?
