2 months agoSick leave in the U.S. increased 55% in 2023 compared to 2019, according to new data from human resources platform Dayforce, which collected data from more than 1,500 of its clients. … employees younger than 36 are leading the charge, with a 29% leap in the amount of sick leave they took from 2024 compared to 2019.
How does the group leading the charge have a smaller increase than the increase of the aggregate? Was there a decline between ‘23 to ‘24? Am I misinterpreting?
Edit: I suppose it could also indicate that the under 36 demographic could have had a significant growth in proportion.
It’s one backed by a lot of data. One example is from the Android project.

There’s an argument that critical infrastructure software vendors are already meeting standards for basic, non-memory related items. Yes, there are other categories, but memory safety is one that’s harder to verify. Moving to memory safe languages is an ensure a category of correctness. This excludes usage of unsafe escape hatches.
