What does social life cost to Tech industry?

  What does social life have to do with anything?

    I think it's just pointing out that focusing on any one thing and proclaiming it wastes enormous amounts of resources when viewed at large scale can be a bit silly most of the time. I mean, why stop at April Fool's? As another person mentioned, what do bathroom breaks cost the industry? How much does people working 40 hour weeks rather than 80 hour weeks cost the industry? How much does a 5 day instead of a 7 day work week cost the industry?

      > proclaiming it wastes enormous amounts of resources I never said that. It's interesting however that at least two people assumed I did (the person you mention talking about bathroom breaks also assumed I meant it was wasteful).

    You just had a baby, can't focus on work. Your grandmother died, can't focus on work. Someone stole your credit card, can't focus on work. The IRS is chancing you up for no reason, can't focus on work. That's what social life got to do with work.
