While the Cambrian Explosion kickstarted complex life in a major way some 530 million years, the true timeline of life on Earth is much longer. For years, scientists have estimated that LUCA likely arrived on the scene some 4 billion years, which is only 600 million years after the planet’s formation.
530 million years ago? 530 million years after the earth formed?
4 billion years ago?
I would recommend changing one thing at a time and consulting one of the images that show what causes the different issues to see what else to adjust.
Not enough information for an exact answer, but if you have plenty of ingredients I would go 5% less and keep everything else the same. If it isn’t enough then keep lowering it until you hit the right balance and if you overshoot then bump it up halfway to your prior one and and kind of work your way to the right spot from there.
Definitely write down everything you try each time if you aren’t already as when you get it right that will be your recipe from here on out.
I like my boss and colleagues, but we have an option to work hybrid and working from home 3 days a week is awesome because there aren’t any office distractions and I get to do the in person thing for those that need it twice a week. Some people do go into the office every day because that works better for them, and the flexible arrangement works really well for everyone overall.
There are always exceptions, including people who can’t manage their time and those that don’t have an adequate setup to work from home. We have an option to work from home several days a week but some people want to go into the office because it is a break from home or they don’t have a dedicated workspace and typing at the dining room table doesn’t work for them.
The big thing is that for those that can WFH successfully it is a huge positive for both happiness and productivity, and not having it as an option is a negative for them.
Those studies have already been done, this is yet another study with the same outcomes. People are happier and more productive working hybrid and WFH.
Two studies in early 2022 validated the views of remote/hybrid work advocates. Research from Owl Labs found that remote and hybrid employees were 22% happier than workers in an onsite office environment and stayed in their jobs longer. Plus, remote workers had less stress, more focus and were more productive than when they toiled in the office. Working from home led to better work/life balance and was more beneficial for the physical and mental well-being of employees.
Now the actual results will vary from person to person and some jobs require some level of in person interaction for a variety of reasons including personal preferences for communication.
