I wondered what was the basic framing of the article, and it seems to be this:
> The COVID-19 pandemic has meant that many more people, like these engineers, are working on complex tasks through computer screens
It’s an interesting view of what it means for people who were mostly working on physical goods with physical tools, or in a “legacy” context with enough tradition that they have dedicated paper/boards/artifacts to work on before digitizing.
It’s a given that these jobs will never get to the same level of communication as being in the same room day in day out working on the same physical items, and the article is a good walk into what is missed.
