    Just pick one, dammit. The justification for this was to save money? How many billions have all of these time changes cost the Information Technology and Financial sectors?

    Got this from a co-worker via Teams on Friday morning before the time change;

    In Sweden, researchers found an average 6.7 percent greater risk of heart attack in the three days after the spring change. Inspired by that finding, a group of U.S. researchers conducted their own study and determined that heart attack risk jumped 24 percent the Monday after switching over to daylight saving time. That risk then tapered off over the remainder of the week.

    By contrast, risk for heart attack dropped 21 percent on the Tuesday after the fall time change.

    another daylight savings time on Sunday, time to roll the dice again with a heart attack
    Appeared to be healthy, nobody knew of any heart issues, and just got back a couple of weeks ago from a ski vacation in Vail. Seemed fine on Mon. He didn't check in on Tues. morning and couldn't be reached by phone. Early to mid 30s. Found dead in his apartment, apparently from a heart attack, when a supervisor went to check on him.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
