I don’t know if they get what the seven means there.
- ReleaseCandidat 2y agoThey worked so múch, the days felt like weeks.

- Etherlord87 2y agoPerhaps the team members cycle so that the team was working on the thing without any night or weekend break. Which should be a standard thing at all times for a big project like this IMHO.
- crazygringo 2y agoHa, you're right it's a bit nonsensical if you take it completely literally. But of course x7 means working every day of the week. So you can absolutely work 24x7 from Thursday afternoon through Tuesday morning. It just means they didn't take the weekend off.
