Despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy has once again called for longer working weeks has returned, this time with an emphasis on schedules like the 996-pattern used in parts of China.

Murthy's comments revive a debate which began in 2024, when he argued that Indian employees should work 70 hours a week.

That's because they taste extremely bitter and putrid. I suggest we just eject them into space towards the sun, and make them pay for it.

    The amount of fuel required to launch them into the sun is more than is required to eject the from the solar system completely, it's not very efficient.

    Although putrid, they remain a valuable source of protein and nutrients. As a more carbon-efficient alternative, I suggest tying some waste stone around their feet and chucking them into the sea. Something in the depths will eat them.
