Flip this around: if a crisis suddenly demanded that we stop using our computers and go back to using paper, there'd be a lot of software developers and tech companies agitating a return to computers when the crisis abated. And there are pluses to having people together in an office, as well as minuses. Google famously built its office to facilitate idea exchange like a university campus, for instance.
- everyone 5y agoI think u may have replied to wrong comment.
- mlboss 5y agoThat is not a correct way at looking at things. Commute solves a problem: It allows people to work together. You can live separately but work together if all the teammates can meet together at a place. But with digital communication you don't need to commute. You can collaborate without being together. In last two years we demonstrated that being in office is not needed. Software solves a different problem. It allows you to process data at a faster pace. You can never do that with paper. There is no other technology that can take software's place.
