So, would you like me to link in the HUNDREDS of articles posted to HN over the past two years going over how working more does not equate to working better and how hours worked is a bad proxy for productivity. Should I? Or are you going to just concede the point right here and now and retract your statement?
- 2muchcoffeeman 10y agoThis may not even be relevant, so long as businesses are applying the same metrics to all their employees - in this case hours spent at work - and compensating them fairly according to those metrics.
- sheepmullet 10y agoFrankly, I don't understand how those hundreds of articles are relevant. Could you distill the overall argument? Comparing two individuals based on hours worked is different to looking at populations. And we aren't talking about 60-80 hour weeks (burnout zone). Unless you are arguing women as a group are significantly more efficient compared to men?
