Are you being serious? A very vocal portion of HN has advocated this for years. At least for their own positions, if not "forced" onto all employees.
For YEARS now, the #1 most reliable way to see your username on the front page of HN is to post a link about David Heinemeier Hansson promoting remote work, or a story skewering Marissa Mayer for squashing it at Yahoo.
It's only after 12 months of sitting at home in our sweatpants going crazy, that I'm starting to see more people discuss offices a bit wistfully.

- UncleMeat 6y agoMaybe. But that's a choice people should be willing to make, IMO.
