I dont know anyone who is badging in, having coffee, then leaving. Even if they are, so what? I think the @OP needs to ask themselves "what is the purpose of RTO?" It's not to foster a better work environment or teaming because many of us have teams that are spr [01:24] schestowitz[TR2] ead out all over the place. I go in 3 days/week. It's difficult to find a place to work there and have Teams calls, but Im far more productive at home. I've decided that IBM is a bridge job and Im using them for a paycheck. They pay me $X/hr for my services, and I do the bare minimum to ensure I dont get PIP'ed so I can leave on my own terms. They dont own me. If part of my pay is coming into a building 3 days a week to talk to nob [01:24] schestowitz[TR2] ody else who works there then go home, okay. I'll commute on their time. It's ridiculous because when I was WFH full time, I worked longer hours. Now they get me from 9-5 M-F and no more. [01:24] schestowitz[TR2] @OP - The only purpose of RTO is to increase attrition without having to pay out for severance. It's easier for Big Blow if people leave on their own. Like most other IT companies today, all Alvind, Rob, and the rest of the shareholder's wh0r3s care about is the price of the stock. All you are to them is cattle. Wake the F up.

Companies can use staggered schedules, hoteling, assigned days, and space planning to solve that. But lets be honest, the real objection isnt desks. Some people just got comfortable never coming in.

    [GSoC 2026] Modernizing Haikus Bluetooth stack: Implementing support for HFP profile
    [10:06] schestowitz[TR2]
    [10:06] schestowitz[TR2]

    Currently Haikus bluetooth stack only handles pairing of devices, there are no profiles implemented. That is you can pair devices but would not be able to do anything with them. It also lacks support for SCO (Synchronous Connection-Oriented) links which are necessary for low latency audio transfer. As part of this project I plan to implement SCO and RFCOMM support. RFCOMM is a profile that is a [10:06] schestowitz[TR2] prerequisite to the HFP(Hands Free Profile) and also FTP(File Transfer Profile). At the end of the project users will be able to use bluetooth earphones/headphones with Haiku.
