Return to office mandates are about stealth layoffs/attrition. Fuel prices might not have any effect since it wasn’t really about working from home to begin with. Of course businesses will continue to make one-off “work from home” exceptions for employees they can’t afford to lose.

- Comment on JPEG-XL Image Support Returns To Latest Chrome / Chromium Code 3 months ago:
Creating two copies of a file isn’t backward compatibility. Thats what devs are doing now with webp. One webp file, and one joeg file for clients who cant render webp.
