It feels like there's a vocal segment of HN users who would be totally fine with that. "Just give me a list of tasks that need doing and let me check in code. Why do managers always want to talk about career progression" etc etc. For people who want to stay in the "mid-level IC" groove in perpetuity, this kind of remote arrangement looks lovely. (I'm personally not interested in that and think it's not sustainable to do that longterm in most companies besides dysfunctional megacorps, but you could probably get away with a good number of years that way.)
