My point is that the paper has no point, the article on the paper is a stretch, and none of this is relevant in any way except creating chatter. It's useless from the research perspective. But it is a cup-holder for marketing something

You do hire remote workers, don't you? If you had to hire workers in office, would you have space and infrastructure for all of them? From my perspective, this would solve the issue. Unless you're worried about in-person north kor
