What’s really funny is that some tech firms won’t even let their employees work from home one day a week. Like is that extra 20% of Spontaneous Collaboration™️ really going to make or break your shitty gig economy app?

I decided to stay in SF this time like an authentic tech hipster and now I’m spending almost 4 hours a day commuting. How do people do it?

The only correct answer is that regardless of where your workers choose to live, if they spend most of their work hours in front of a computer or in meetings there’s no good reason for everyone to travel to the same place at the same time every day

What's worse is in SWE@ remote-privilege is selectively allowed. 50% of why I left was being done with the commute [I am mid-peninsula, but far from 280, so ~1h one-way]. I didn't give them an option to let me be more remote, because that'd be unfair. I walk to new work now.

Locality is a retention problem, a diversity problem, a representation problem and consequently a quality problem
