I know how much the feds get, the state, the local, the schools - down to the penny.

Not really. The feds turn around and give a bunch of money straight to the states, and most states give a bunch of money directly to schools and localities.

But how is what size of entity gets money important anyway? In all cases, the money is divided up and doled out to countless individual programs. *That's* what's important, and our system gives you no particular clues to track that.

I used to pay some attention to this stuff like 5-6-7 years ago. I'm done... I do not care anymore. I'm sick of the constant scare tactics and hearing about how every goddamned thing is attributed to climate change. Let it happen at this point, just SHUT UP ABOUT IT.

This article is about the climate actually changing ... and you're mad because that's attributed to climate change?

How horrible! Imagine the nightmare of taking three seconds to plug in a network cable and have reliable, stable, fast connectivity.

I think that the point was that the fancy recliners were useless, because they probably don't have ethernet jacks like the desks do.

But IMHO, the actual reason that these lounge chairs are useless is because to get real work done, you need a couple of big monitors, a real keyboard and a real mouse. And if you're in a "collaborative workspace", a white board and a table might be a better investment than recliners.
