If one of my engineers ever tries to do this, I will forcibly remove their work laptop from their posession.

If you ever see the 'time to leave' notification and you're not already on your way out -- just treat it as "you're late already" :D
I like that google calendar lets me say "remind me X minutes beforehand" but it's sad it can't combine that with traffic data etc.

Fortunately while work is a stressor (it always is) I'm fairly happy where I am - but 3 weeks off sounds like utter bliss. I managed two weeks and I'd say the last couple of days started to actually feel like I was relaxing. So 3 sounds like I might actually recharge a bit.

This so wonderfully describes how this whole shitshow has been since March last year. Even a few weeks off work doesn't help because we can't do what we might normally in order to recover. If this is you too, you have my sympathy - I know, all too well, how you feel.
Does anybody else feel like theyβre in a constant state of burnout, and that sometimes the burnout becomes milder, but you never fully come out of it? I have no idea how to recover, and thereβs never enough time and space to do so. Life is exhausting.

Do you need them to be lock-step sampled? if no, then some (cheap?) USB input devices perhaps? Assuming they're fairly cheap they'll derive their ADC clocks from the USB anyway and so be pretty close to lockstep.
The QL had a nice set of productivity tools back then. I remember doing essays in Quill. Looks like they're up online too -- dilwyn.me.uk/psions/

Talk about the nostalgia feels -- I had a QL, though not the 128K RAM pack nor the 5M 'wafer' storage. "fond" memories of the microdrive abound.

If it's a random website it's running in the throwaway container anyway, so they get an 'accept all' and when the window closes, their cookies are all discarded anyway :D

I think not just fallible but also design for deliberate attempts to circumvent, as per your previous message. In some circumstances, design processes for people *trying to break them*.

Hey @OctopusEnergy you might want to get @octopus_50 to stop using your name/appearance given their frankly horrendous attitude toward other humans. e.g. nitter.vloup.ch/octopus_50/statuβ¦
This is a question that the openssf is attempting to answer at least a bit

Good point, thank you. I didn't buy it myself (it was a gift) but I'll pay more attention in the future.
