It's not long term. If you read the linked article, it's still 52 hours a week. This change just defines how those 52 hours can be distributed.

Which would still be miserable but significantly less absurd.

I usually don't give a fuck about ads, but they've gotten increasingly annoying lately.

Now the biggest websites (most obviously YouTube) are the ones with the craziest most intrusive ads.

Python. It's the only one I know :(

I've been trying to learn C# too but object-oriented programming just slides right off my smooth brain lol.
