I'm willing to work 4x 7 hour days. If you think about the last 30 years of computer enhancing productivity, we're owed a lot!

    I work like a truck, so 4x4 would be appropriate.

    Why not 3x 7 hour days if the productivity gains are that great‽

    A human has something like 4-6 hours of good work in them per day and the balance should be on life rather than work so 3 days of max 6h could be a start.

    Everything would work as is and better and we can adjust to less allocation
