Apologies for not replying sooner. I can't give you a ballpark figure, partly because I'm too lazy to go and check. But I've been writing since ... well, forever. Both personally and professionally. Do that regularly, and even in small amounts, and the number of words and pages and files adds up.

It's about control. If a middle manager (or higher) can't see you, they don't believe that you're working. No matter how much work you actually get done.

On my work computer, at least four - one each for the web apps, like Notion or Monday.com in which I'm working. Sometimes, I have a couple of tabs open for each app.

On my own computer, two maybe three - one for email, one for Nextcloud, and whatever one I'm using for browsing.

Back in the 1980s, some Japanese companies had rooms in which you could whack at an effigy of the boss with a shinai. Just to let off a bit of steam. Will Meta's workers be able to do something like this with Zuckerberg's AI clone?

Been giving calendar.txt a third try since discovering it back in 2023. I got an LLM to code me up a simple graphical front end that makes working with a calendar.txt file a bit more palatable. So far, so good.

Not any longer. I had a nice little collection of pre-2000 portable computers and devices. Things like an Atari Portfolio, a Tandy 102, a Zoomer PDA, a couple of HP palmtops, and a Palm Pilot or two. And a few more. All were in great working condition. But I sold every last one of them about 12 years ago.
