Comment Re:Violated her rights how? (Score 1) 148

My bad, I skipped over that paragraph for some reason. It's a weird claim, it's one thing to claim academic freedom and other thing to speak about free speech rights. I actually suspected the article embellished that and misquoted, so I had to check the complaint, I found the bit that refers to freedom of speech and association:

"In January 2023, Dean Elmendorf told Dr. Donovan that she was not allowed to communicate to donors and supporters her understanding of what was taking place. "
I guess a workplaces can put restrictions who you can talk to, probably not the strongest claim.

It's because sun rises at different hours in the seasons, if sun rises at 4 AM business start at 9 AM few people will wake up earlier to take advantage of the sun, or even if they do (especially if they don't have good blinds) it's lack of quality of time, you cannot be too productive before going to work/school, it's better to have the free hour of sunshine after you finish with your businesses for the day than before you start them.

Why move the hour back in the winter? Because people don't like to wake up in the dark and drive to work in the dark.

It's a small inconvenience twice a year to sync somewhat the social clock with the cosmological reality.
