Negotiations between the National Samsung Electronics Union, which represents workers in the company’s chipmaking division, and management have seemingly broken down over a single issue. According to the Financial Times, the two sides are close to agreeing on an allocation of 13% of operating profit, which works out to be roughly $340,000 USD per employee, as a bonus to the workers. However, company management is only willing to give this as a one-time offer, while the union wants the allocation to be guaranteed annually and included in the agreement that the two sides will sign.

When 5G = no internet connection

Seawater — Sat, 04 Apr 2026 19:32:20 +0800

Sometimes your phone shows you are in 5G with full bar, but browser shows no internet connection. Then you set the SIM card to use LTE only, immediately 4G+ connection is established and browser starts loading.

Why ah? It means 5G so over saturated by other people until no spare bandwidth for me to access internet? 🤔

Japan lifelong employment

Learn from the East

As corporate America and Europe drag workers back to five days in the office and squeeze for ever more efficiency, Japan is quietly paying thousands of older employees to show up, sit down, and do almost nothing at all.

Meet the madogiwazoku cohort—older, underperforming, or redundant employees who are assigned desks near the window with little to no work to do.

These “window workers” are mostly Gen X and boomer men in their late fifties and sixties, who were hired on the promise of lifetime employment shushin koyo and a seniority‑based pay system.

Instead of leading teams or closing deals, they spend their days answering the occasional email, shuffling a few documents, and sorting paperwork—kept on comfortable salaries but carefully steered away from any real responsibility.
