echo 'Hello World' > /dev/sda or mv / /dev/null

No and no.

Oh yeah, you'll need root ofc., add 'sudo !!' and enter pass.

Joke aside: I misunderstood what was asked it appears. Re-reading the original post I'm still unsure what is asked.

But to be clear, you shouldn't use these commands if you wish to erase sensitive information, albeit if you use full disk encryption it will not really remove or add any value I suppose.

If you want to be sure you could overwrite the disk with random random bits or use a degausser which is properly the most complete/sure method of erasure.

I feel that it's easier just to have clear tasks with deadlines, using decent project management software like say Asana, Monday, or whatever. If they're meeting the deadlines and the work is good, why bother wasting time being big bro and treating them like a child? Why not just go by results? (you can check commits as well, and CI not going off will at least tell you nothing is broken)

Oh god not Asana.

Curious. Why don't you like Asana? What do you prefer instead?

Is this really a ubiquitous thing in the US? Office jobs were you are paid for having your body present, regardless of whether you slack off most of the time?

Who pays for this? Isn't it terribly inefficient?

I mean, if there's just not a lot of work to do, you could also have shorter work weeks. And you would, if your boss could trust you to not slack off every time they turn their backs?

Wouldn't it be more logical to do your work and then have actual time off, instead of pretending the work takes much longer than it actually does?

He's watching Technology Connections on you tube, which is an excellent choice. Highly recommended. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy0tKL1T7wFoYcxCe0xjN6Q

He's also playing Broken Reality, a silly game parodying the internet. It's pretty good.
