Hopefully the sleep study goes well! At least where I am, sleep studies are generally now conducted in your own home. It was a more seamless experience that way compared to going into the lab.

Here’s one of those Reddit-isms.

I don’t think increased connectedness or creativity in-person are necessarily fanciful ideas. Rather, I’d argue the more important question is if it matters. In some lines of work, maybe so; in others, maybe not.

I can give one perspective. I average one day a week in office, and it’s necessary for certain tasks and helpful for others. Then, we all complete our tasks independently on our own time the other days. Office days are driven by need but we’re free to work from home otherwise. Hybrid makes sense for us.

But, it’s nonsensical the companies that set an arbitrary amount of days you need to be in person just because.

I was surprised to see the blackout mentioned in a daily email I get with the top news highlights from the day before, so it’s out there.
