We, as very high-paid professionals, should ask for most ergonomic workspaces. We (or our employers) spent thousands of dollars for latest macbooks, cool chairs, motorized stand-up desks, etc. Light is no less important than that.
All the best conditions for «computer opetators» were studied in details in 1990s, really. What should be lighting conditions, what should be desk hight, which distance between screen and keyboard (say hello to laptops), etc. It is not a rocket surgery, all data are available, there is standards and recommendations («codes») in each developed country. It is shown, that proper workplace could double productivity, for both lathe machinist and computer user.
And why sunlike lamp wil be turnedvon next to me in midnight if I'm at home, in the bedroom (presumably) and not in my working place (on site or remote, it doesn't matter)?
You work from your bed? I have bad news for future your neck, back and hands.
Enthusiasm of people who throw away all this research and work from beanbags in the twilight with laptop on their hips astonishes me.
- kragen 3y agono standard recommends illuminating workplaces at natural 10-kilolux levels for lathe machinists or computer users; most monitors are unusable in such an environment
- safety1st 3y agoMe personally? I'm basically terminals everywhere. Whether it's work or play. Office, living room, bedroom, bathroom, on the train, at a bar, you name it. 2pm or 2am, I want a terminal and a browser. You better believe I'm not going to be in light mode and sitting under a sun lamp all the time. Edit: ok I do use apps other than a terminal and a browser on occasion. An ebook reader for instance. A great example. If I'm reading a book in bed before I sleep I'm going to do it in dark mode. Don't want the extra lumens before bed.
