    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[You can imagine that, as a company famous for these values (not to mention the opportunity to work with really smart co-workers and take part in our other awesome benefits), it was never hard to find talent. Every time we posted a listing, or Joel tweeted “We’re hiring!” we’d find ourselves with an absolute flood of resumes – we weren’t complaining!

Nearly fifteen years later, however, the landscape has changed. While we still meet more talented candidates than we can reasonably hire, we’re no longer the only player in the great-place-to-work game, and competition for hiring the smartest developers has become significantly more fierce across industries and locations. Massive changes in the landscape may create panic in some companies. At Fog Creek, however, we live to solve challenging problems. Besides, we’ve overcome way worse!

And so we’ve taken this opportunity to grow and adapt to our new, more competitive environment. Our first and biggest initiative: allowing remote employees to join our ranks.]]></description>

    <title>Why We (Still) Believe in Private Offices « Blog – Stack Exchange</title>

    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[There was a time where it seemed like we barely even needed to talk about this: Joel had won the argument, the Internet agreed that private offices were the future, and only incompetent management (or a tight budget) was still putting developers in cubicle farms. A glorious future lay before us.


The original Fog Creek Bionic Office, way back in ye olde 2003. We 
didn’t have iPhones, but at least the offices had doors.

Unfortunately, that’s not quite how it turned out. Open plans have been surprisingly hard to kill, despite research showing that they’re unpopular, decrease employee satisfaction, and hurt productivity. The response so far seems to have been to double down and make it, if anything, worse: cubicles are now decidedly un-cool so no-wall open offices are all the rage, and Facebook brags that its new building will be the largest open floor plan in the world, consisting of a single, ten acre open room.

The result is that today Stack Exchange is decidedly lonely if not quite alone in offering private offices to our developers (at least the half who work in the office; the other half work remotely). Suddenly we’re the ones who look a bit old-fashioned: isn’t that the old-school Microsoft approach? Doesn’t it make us less creative? How can we stay fast and agile if people keep disappearing into offices to do work?

We’re pretty sure it doesn’t do any of these things, and in fact we believe it has a lot to do with how we think about work and our developers.]]></description>

Go check out the full article on tinkering monkey. They even make standing desks.

There are really 2 parts of this: monitor height and keyboard height. The key thing is: you don’t want your monitor and keyboard to be on the same surface. You’ll get neck cramps, or cut off blood circulation to your fingers.

    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[The image of legions of headphone-wearing employees sitting silently at their workstations, oblivious to the flesh-and-blood community around them but actively engaged with a virtual world, seems like a dystopian future envisioned in movies like Minority Report. But that future is here. A Wall Street Journal piece on the "officeless office" had a sidebar with six new rules for office etiquette which included #1, no sneaking up; #5, limit chit-chat; and #6 use headphones. That may increase a certain kind of productivity, but at what cost?

Management professors Sigal Barsade at Wharton and Hakan Ozcelik at Cal State Sacramento are among the pioneers in studying how employee isolation correlates with organizational outcomes. In a recent study, they found "because they feel more estranged and less connected to coworkers, lonelier employees will be more likely to experience a lack of belongingness at work, thus decreasing their affective commitment to their organizations." Something to think about before you decide to limit social chit-chat or put those headphones back on.]]></description>

    <title>EXCLUSIVE: First Look At Airbnb’s Amazing New Offices - Office Snapshots</title>

    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Airbnb, one of the web’s fastest growing and most talked about companies, recently moved into its new San Francisco-based offices. Located in Potrero Hill, the space was designed by Michael Garcia and Farid Tamjidi of Garcia-Tamjidi.

The company recently made made the decision to design and move into the space to accommodate its growing number of employees, which now numbers 100+ in the SF office. Beyond simply increasing square-footage to 25,000 , which Airbnb fit out using wonderful Vitra furniture, they worked to bring some of their service in to the space by designing some of their meeting spaces after rooms from a few Airbnb listings.  Berlin, Hong Kong, NYC, and Aptos.

One of the bonus services that the headquarters boasts is a full-time chef, which of course helps the company provide on-site meals for staff. Whether or not those meals are free is another question, but we’ve seen several companies try this out as a way to foster community among employees while keeping them at work thereby adding to productivity.

    <title>CUergo: Sitting and Standing</title>

    <dc:creator>Aetles</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Sit-Stand Workstations
We have tested computer use when sitting and standing in different ways (see EHAW). The problem with standing is that when you raise desk height for keyboard/mouse use you need to also raise screen height above the desk or you get neck flexion. Also, for standing computer work the computer fixes the person’s posture there is greater wrist extension and pretty soon people end up leaning which also compromises their wrist posture, thereby increasing the risks of a musculoskeletal disorder like carpal tunnel syndrome.
 
In our field studies of sit-stand workstations we have found little evidence of widespread benefits and users only stand for very short-periods (15 minutes or less total per day). Other studies have found that the use of sit-stand stations rapidly declines so that after 1 month a majority of people are sitting all the time.
 
Others have proposed a treadmill workstation or a bicycle workstation. Both of these have been tested and shown to decrease computer work performance (typing and mousing slows down and significantly more mistakes are made).
 
Sit-stand workstations are expensive and generally ineffective in addressing the issues to hand.
 
The bottom line:
Sit to do computer work. Sit using a height-adjustable, downward titling keyboard tray for the best work posture, then every 20 minutes stand for 2 minutes AND MOVE. The absolute time isn’t critical but about every 20-30 minutes take a posture break and move for a couple of minutes.  Simply standing is insufficient. Movement is important to get blood circulation through the muscles. Research shows that you don’t need to do vigorous exercise (e.g. jumping jacks) to get the benefits, just walking around is sufficient. So build in a pattern of creating greater movement variety in the workplace (e.g. walk to a printer, water fountain, stand for a meeting, take the stairs, walk around the floor, park a bit further away from the building each day).
 
So the key is to build movement variety into the normal workday.]]></description>

If you’re looking for an easy fix, stop banging your head against the wall, it’s not you. It’s the server. You should contact the webmaster and ask him or her to add the Office 2007 mime types to the server’s configuration. With Apache running on linux, this is typically in the file /etc/mime.types. Ask them to add

application/vnd.openxmlformats       docx pptx xlsx
to that file, and then restart Apache. If you’re testing it out on one of your own servers, you’ll probably need to close and restart your browser, too.]]></description>
