This is actually great.
It looks really strange in the modern globalized world that everybody worth something in tech have to physically move to Bay Area.
The world needs new tech (and other talent) hubs, and market pressure helps in this diversification. No need to resist it.
- pteredactyl 11y agoWhat's strange is people who do not see the value in face to face communication and think remote is equal to everything else.
- atemerev 11y agoWhat's the difference between video chat and face to face communication? I don't see any. And, for that matter, resolving the issue in Slack is often much faster.
- pteredactyl 11y agoFor me it's literal presence. Some people may not be able to feel it, but I do. And for my best work, it matters. On the other hand, I do agree oftentimes it is faster to resolve issues in chat, over the phone, or whatever digital reduction du jour.
