AI Thread Summary
Determining the right desk height is crucial for ergonomic comfort. It is essential that the desk allows for proper leg clearance, enabling knees to be at a 90-degree angle while sitting. Maintaining a straight posture with a natural curve in the lower back is also important for reducing strain. While adjustable chairs can help accommodate different desk heights, ensuring the desk itself is at an appropriate level is key for overall comfort and health.

Thread 'My experience as a hostage'

I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
