>f.lux use by normal people and other similar stuff is a good canary for how sophisticated a person is. What do you mean by this? Personally I find warmer colours easier on the eyes, especially in dark rooms. Nothing to do with sleep.

I haven't looked at their list of papers but if they have evidence that blue light affects sleep, why would reducing the blue light coming off your phone/monitor NOT affect sleep? I don't really see why the source of the ligh

That's not the point. The publicly stated reason for this whole saga was Elon was claiming Twitter was suppressing free speech and wanted to make it free again. This play goes against all that.

They exist but you're right that you can't just use the waste heat directly. You have to pump in some extra heat to make it worthwhile. They are called co-generation power plants. The one I used to work at took the waste heat from

There is no way 8h of work can be classed as 8h of socialization. Especially in fields that can be done WFH. The vast majority of my work hours are spent facing the screen not socializing with anyone. A more realistic number would be a coup
