Interesting... Apple offers a Vision Pro 3D simulator for Xcode with different room and lighting environments, so you don't really need a physical Vision Pro AR Headset to develop apps for it.

Here's a headline from today's FT. I'm sure it's totally unrelated to the "get back to work you lazy arse work from home people" bleating.

"US banks prepare for losses in rush for commercial property exit"

Good Morning #Canada
June 2nd is National Leave the Office Early Day, a holiday created in 2004 by Laura Stack, an expert in enhancing employee productivity. I'm retired so this day no longer has impact on me but during my career I tried to celebrate it weekly when possible.
The pandemic resulted in #WorkFromHome increasing dramatically for a lot of Canadians so leaving early today may be easier for some. Here's some updated stats on #RemoteWork.

Reasons why I dont miss the office at all. #workfromhome #cats #catsofmastodon

When I told my two-year-old I couldn't play with her because I was working, sadly, with tears in her eyes, she starts down the stairs singing ๐ข๐ต when grown-ups are too busy to play with you look around look around ๐ต๐ข #DanielTiger #WorkFromHome
@vitaminsludge This type of behavior only gives ammunition to those who donโt like #WFH, and want to force everyone back to the office.
I worked remote for years before the pandemic, because of the nature of my business, but youโll never get me commuting back to an office downtown in Los Angeles. 2h to 2.5h every day spent in traffic doing an average of 15 mph! ๐ฑ
Making sure my camera and audio are off before I start singing to the dog #WorkFromHome
Remote work isn't just a trend โ it's here to stay! ๐ป I've put together a guide of best practices to help everyone get the most out of their remote work environment.
Check it out and see how you can apply these tips to your workflow! #remotework #workfromhome ๐https://www.tsamoudakis.com/article/best-practices-for-remote-work-communication
Remote work, while still seen as a benefit, should be acknowledged as a fundamental right for roles fully capable of being conducted remotely. This shift is necessary for the advancement of humanity.

โจWhen office life claims to be a dream, why isn't Yahoo's 2013 #RTO mandate hailed as a triumphant tale 10 years on? Perhaps it's because it never soared to success?

At least 40% of the workforce is engaged in #hybrid or #remote #workโi.e. still works from home at least part of the timeโbut our neighborhoods and stores still operate like it's 2019, and everyone is at the office from 9 to 5!
In my latest for The Wall Street Journal, I share a bunch of ideas for how we can do better.What would go on YOUR #workfromhome wish list?

#WorkFromHome
Perks of the work from home life:
#WorkFromHome pro tip: put your modem & router on an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) / backup battery. It gives you enough time to usually finish up the virtual meeting that you are connected to without dropping off immediately when your power goes out!
Ok, this is it: #egu23 is over already! Pfiu, this went by rapidly and was, once again, intense!
My main takeaway from discussions is that quite a lot of #postdocs now work in one place but live in another. #WorkFromHome seems to be more broadly accepted than in pre-Covid times. Keep that in mind when negotiating your next postdoc position ๐
Seeking #recommendations for fully #remote (#WorkFromHome) jobs (not hybrid) that:
- Pay decently ($20/hour or more)
- Hire US workers and allow one to move within the US and remain employed.
- Donโt require talking with customers.
- Donโt require a college degree.
I've learned a lot more about cooking in the past few years, not only because the pandemic (although the it gave me a push), but just from a logistical standpoint. I'm work from home, and wifey has to drive over an hour to Phoenix every day (๐).
I think that she likes that I'm now able to cook better and more often. As soon as I'm off work here at home, I start thinking of/making dinner. That's another big advantage of wfh. I can't imagine her driving over an hour to get home then having to make dinner. It doesn't make sense. Even though she is a GREAT cook. She taught me a lot. Like what things go together, etc. She's vegetarian now and we try to eat semi healthy (cutting sugar and fat just when we can), so I try to work all that in. Using odd leftover ingredients sometimes, experimenting- it's pretty cool, actually. Sometimes you feel like a mad scientist. ๐คฃ
The most important thing probably to all of it is figuring out what ingredients you always need to have around, finding them at the best prices, and making sure you use them fast enough before they go bad- which is always tricky, especially with fruits and veggies.
I used to hate cooking (all I did before was eggs or microwaved stuff, really) and I think I kinda still do hate the process and effort (I'm not one of those people who gets a lot of gratification from stuff I've cooked, I barely like food ๐คฃ๐คฃ) but I gather up the energy required, and I enjoy knowing that
Having an air fryer has really helped, and I can't stress this enough. If you're on the fence, just get one. I use it literally daily. You can air fry all KINDS of things-- veggies, meat, it's incredible. Probably best not to totally cheap out on it though, as we've been through a few. Ours is a Ninja.
I also set up a Trello board with a bunch of meal ideas, after people on here gave me great advice- if you want to see that, it's here!
https://trello.com/b/OTvHEzEd/breakfasts-lunches-dinners-snacks
We do a little meal planning, as I also make her breakfast and pack her a lunch, as she puts on makeup/does hair in the morning, and again, it just makes sense. I don't need to look any certain way, I rarely leave the house!
This one got a little long. Maybe I'll throw it on Substack eventually? I'm not super active there (yet).

Is this the solution to too much sitting when we #WorkFromHome?
The 21st century has seen a return to the #CottageIndustry - a form of production that once saw workers labor far from their bosses and thus beyond their control - but shriven of the autonomy and dignity that working from home once afforded:
https://doctorow.medium.com/gig-work-is-the-opposite-of-steampunk-463e2730ef0d
The rise and rise of #bossware - which allows for remote surveillance of workers in their homes and cars - has turned "#WorkFromHome" into "#LiveAtWork."

Remote work is one of the best things to come from the pandemic, allowing more people to participate in the workforce. Sign the petition to create legislation in Canada giving people the right to work remotely if their positions allow it!

This monstrosity arrived today. A #Kensington #SlimBlade #Trackball.
Someone clearly designed this, but made all the choices I wouldn't want them to make. It's super glossy too. It's going to be ugly *and* fingerprint gross in no-time.
But will it work? My right wrist is really feeling bothered again these days, so I'm going to give this a try -- with my left hand, even. Let's see how it goes.
It works out of the box on #Linux, "rotate ball to scroll" and all. Neat!

โโฆ but you get lunch included when you go to the office.โ
Right, but I donโt get to choose my lunch. Today I choose this.
We need to make #WorkFromHome mandatory for all positions that can do so, and convert all resulting vacant office spaces into residential units. This would simultaneously eliminate most of the #CarbonEmissions from commuting AND solve the #HousingAffordability crisis.
Work commutes offer space to both mentally transition from work to home roles and to start psychologically recovering from the demands of the workday.
So even if people canโt agree on whether itโs time to #returntotheoffice, many workers miss the commute.
I donโt see what all the fuss is. Iโve been sleeping where I work for years! #trendsetter #WorkFromHome
Authorities should not be encouraging unnecessary travel.
Some of my favorite parts of #WorkFromHome days:
โข Open windows in the morning
โข Music without headphones
โข More coffee
๐ง #NowPlaying Snowman by WYS

Know what works just as well for me? Leaving the dedicated office in my house and closing the door. Voila: I am instantly psychologically recovered from work. No shitty-ass commute in a car (where I get stuck in traffic) or on a train (where I worry about all the maskless Typhoid Marys) required.
How do people manage to work from home without a cat? (Yes, I was working. I just closed my work tabs for the picture) #catsofmastodon #workfromhome #freelance
I love working from home and talking to you all.
Me at work: left, due to drama/impositions/expectations/shy bladder / diseased coworkers/ commute / etc.
Me at home: right.
I may not have business cards (and I wouldn't want a job that requires them!) but now I have a mug with my job title on it, and that's a thousand times cooler.
