... how does commuting fit into the Apple sustainability mantra ...?

Are tech companies potentially well suited to offer telecommuting...?


While every company has specific needs there seems much research to suggest benefits:

“After evaluating over 105 million data points from 30,000 U.S.-based Prodoscore users, we discovered a five percent increase in productivity during the pandemic work from home period,” www.forbes.com/sites/bryanrobinson/2022/02/04/3-new-studies-end-debate-over-effectiveness-of-hybrid-and-remote-work/

"companies now find themselves offering remote and hybrid options as a strategy for retaining talent rather than for any performance considerations"

I expect streaming makes data mining a listener profile easier. Is it all really about the data in the end...?.

A bit torn. Sounds like it might be cute. But also sounds like it could be creepy beyond all reason. You know,, depending on the circumstances. 

I vote for "creepy".
