yeah but the real question is how is remote work reshaping where people work. And by that I mean on a more granular level: How many of those jobs in big cities will go elsewhere and where to exactly? And that's why I like the idea of this article in that it does make sense that people who study for 3-x years in a city and learn to love it want to stay there after their studies. Remote work makes this easier. Also, what I'm interested in is how much of remote work will be outsourced within one country and how much will be outsourced to different countries. I suspect that many typical roles that go "100% remote ok" will first say "but please in this country" before they say "yeah, another country is fine as well" but maybe the latter will happen more often soon. There have been studies for Europe (from Ernst&Young etc.) that say something along the lines of "you have to offshore 50% of your workforce [developers] to stay competitive" (well, that is for Germany and other high-labor-cost-countries.) although I'm a little suspect about these studies but well.. that's what management of some international companies is listening to...
