## xkcd_routine_task_1205.png The image is a comic strip featuring a chart that illustrates how much time can be saved by making routine tasks more efficient over five years. The chart is divided into two main sections: one on the left side and another on the right, which are connected at the bottom. ### Left Side: - **Vertical Axis (Y-axis):** Represents "How Much Time You Shave Off," with values ranging from 1 second to 1 day. - **Horizontal Axis (X-axis):** Represents "How Often You Do The Task," with intervals for different frequencies: 50 times a day, 5 times a day, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly. ### Right Side: - **Vertical Axis:** Represents the time saved in years across five years. - **Horizontal Axis:** Represents the frequency of task completion (same as on the left side). #### Details within the Chart: 1. **Frequency of Task Completion:** - **50 times a day:** The chart shows that by doing this, you can save 2 hours and 30 minutes over five years. - **5 times a day:** This frequency allows for saving 4 minutes and 21 seconds over the same period. - **Daily:** Daily completion results in saving 21 hours and 4 minutes. - **Weekly:** Weekly completion saves you 5 hours and 30 minutes. - **Monthly:** Monthly completion yields a savings of 2 days, 2 months, and 1 day over five years. - **Yearly:** Yearly completion results in saving 8 weeks. #### Example Breakdown: - For the "5 times a day" frequency (left side): - At the top left corner: 1 second per task saves you 2 hours and 30 minutes over five years. - Moving down, at 5 seconds per task: Saves 4 minutes and 21 seconds. - At 30 seconds per task: Saves 21 hours and 4 minutes. - For the "Yearly" frequency (right side): - At the top right corner: 1 second per task saves you 25 seconds over five years. - Moving down, at 1 minute per task: Saves 2 days, 2 months, and 1 day. - At 30 minutes per task: Saves 8 weeks. ### Summary: The chart visually demonstrates that the more frequently a routine task is completed, the greater the time saved over five years. The savings are significant even with small increments in efficiency, such as shaving off seconds or minutes each time you perform the task.
