bigthink: "Flipped Office"
Have We Reached 'Peak Car'? What Driving Might Be Like in 2030 | Think Tank | Big Think:
"Getting every-other Friday off (the 5/4 schedule) became standard by 2015, establishing the 3-day weekend every other week as the norm. By 2020, this was every weekend, as people moved to a 9 hour day, 4 days per week at the office, and the other 4 hours were “at home” work – checking email on the long weekend, erasing once strict separation of home and work. By 2025 taking every-other Monday off (the 4/3 schedule) was established in most large employers. Today we are seeing half-days on Wednesdays for many office workers, with only Tuesdays, Wednesday, and Thursdays as interactive collaboration days. The “flipped” office, where people were expected to do “work” at home on their own computers, and only show up for meetings is now standard."

wired: Supersized Turkey Dinner
Give Thanks? Science Supersized Your Turkey Dinner - Wired Science:
"Your corn is sweeter, your potatoes are starchier and your turkey is much, much bigger than the foods that sat on your grandparents’ Thanksgiving dinner table.
Most everything on your plate has undergone tremendous genetic change under the intense selective pressures of industrial farming. Pilgrims and American Indians ate foods called corn and turkey, but the actual organisms they consumed didn’t look or taste much at all like our modern variants do."
“Americans (today) eat a pound of sugar every two-and-a-half days. The average amount of sugar consumed by an Englishman in the 1700s was about a pound a year,”
The result: super-sized healthcare.gov web site...
Isn't web and software development also becoming too big and too much dependent of "sugar"?
What are in essence simple requirements are bloated by various libraries and tools (think SharePoint :)

STEM students: too many or too few?
STEM fields - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
STEM fields or STEM education is an acronym for the fields of study in the categories of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.[1] The term is typically used in addressing education policy and curriculum choices in schools
Is It Fair to Steer Students into STEM Disciplines Facing a Glut of Workers? - IEEE Spectrum:
"“Having experience in technical matters helps them [STEM students] land good non-STEM jobs. They might work in places like marketing or medical-device sales, where their technical backgrounds helped them get in.” "
...
no one knows (or tracks) exactly how many H-1B visa holders there are in the U.S. He estimated that the total is around 650 000, with most working in the high tech arena.

With focus on lowering cost, not on quality, long term prospects are not good.
