World's smallest violin plays for all the landlords and homeowners who may no longer benefit from the Bay Area's absurd restrictions on new housing In all seriousness, while I welcome the new openness to remote work, what I'd love to see is a push towards something in the middle: distributed offices. Rather than having to choose between moving to ridiculously expensive SF, or working from home in their current city, employees could go to their local coworking space. They'd get the benefits of an environment more conducive to productivity, away from the distractions of home, and the mental health benefits of social interaction. I don't think that making a huge shift to working from home is good for the already prevalent issue of loneliness. Plus, having coworking spaces spread out within the city itself means that even if your company is headquartered in your city, you don't have to make the long commute to HQ if there's a closer coworking space.
