Thank you! The original Connections is one of my favorite series of all time, and I had no idea there was a reboot.

Came here to say this. I have really been enjoying this channel since it popped up about a month ago.

If you're tall and have the budget, I would recommend getting a 4-leg desk rather than a 2-leg one. I switched from a 2-leg Autonomous to a 4-leg model (DeskHaus Apex Pro) it's so much more stable, even when raised.

I'd be interested to hear about the experiences of someone who has gone through that Berkeley program or a similar one.

BetterTouchTool can do this! I too would go crazy without it.

> Not that you should go out of your way to be hurtful, but any genuinely useful advice/suggestions should be given without regard for emotion. You're at work, not a social club.

I agree that this could be useful advice and that you should _not_ hesitate to give it if you think it will be useful. However, I think it's rather extreme and short-sighted to say that such advice should be given entirely "without regard for emotion."

Here's the thing. Your co-workers are human. Humans have lizard brains, and sometimes get defensive. In order to maximize productivity and harmony in the workplace, you want to avoid that.

There's this thing called tact. Use it.

25%? Like, one-quarter of the mass of the salad bowl? Not parts-per-million?

It's not free; it usually costs a few thousand dollars, so there is a payback calculation to make.
