He's also been showing his age quite a bit, being against a lot of recent developments, like being anti-remote work.
- MBCook 4y ago> like being anti-remote work. I don’t remember that at all. Can you provide a link?
- jgruber 4y agoI am not “anti remote work”. That would be absurd (and, personally, hypocritical). But I strongly believe that remote work isn’t good for some teams, and for some roles. No remote work for anyone: bad policy. Everyone on every team can work remote: sometimes a bad policy. That’s my position. A lot of people who strongly feel they should always have the option of full-time remote work object to that.
- onlineonly 4y ago"Everyone on every team can work remote: sometimes a bad policy." I agree with a lot of what you say, but where is your proof of this? Everyone worked remotely for 2 years and we all made money.
- jedikv 4y agoThe objection was to you telling Apple employees to shut up and never question Apple authority. And then pulling some mental gymnastics that Apple is 'special' with not being remote friendly

- armadsen 4y agoI like John Gruber and usually agree with him. But his anti-remote work thing is baffling, and made even more so by the fact that he himself has worked from home for going on 20 years.
