Grimy comments on Permanent Daylight Saving Time Could Harm Sleep and Mental Health, Analysis Says

That's fair. My work lets me start anytime between 7 and 9, it shouldn't be an advantage but required by law when feasible imo. Your comment sounded more like doing away with the notion of time as a unit more than anything else though.

That is my goal but I realize it’s only achievable on a personal level.

But let schools start later in the winter so kids aren’t up before dawn, let folks have flexible start times so they can get the sleep they need, that sort of thing.

This at least helps treat the mental symptoms that come from being treated like a machine while not being one.

Yes exactly start work sunrise +1h, end work dusk -1h or 9h later which ever is shorter. We are humans not machines.

Tbh though, with how all our phones are connected to the net, we could probably have a rolling daylight savings. So add 4 minutes or wtv amount every week to keep the sunrise hour always the same. So your start time would always be sun stable so to speak.
