So many forecasts i hear about the fallout of this, such as everyone living in private fortresses in the suburbs working from home, not going into large groups ever again, abandoning the cities, conferences, and universities for online vocational training seem dystopian to be honest.

- icebergwarrior 6y agoIf you're a backend engineer without social skills this type of life style seems perfect and desirable. Everyone else can't wait to meet people and interact again. There's a reason cities have existed for thousands of years.

The idea that we won't get there when this is in the rearview mirror is like... it's not even a disagreeing forecast, it's actively ignoring what's happening right now.
- ZanyProgrammer 6y agoYeah it’s more of a wish fulfillment than anything resembling an objective forecast.
