Remote definitely does not help only the employee side. Because of remote I have hired people that I would not be able to hire. You vastly increase the talent pool when you cast the net wider.

Understandable concerns. Around me at least it costs about $7000 all in for the improvements for a single parking spot in the city. 2-bike lockers cost about $1000 and take up a fraction of the space.

Cars are noisy and take up a ton of space. In cities bikes seem like a way better way to go, especially with e-bikes. They are quieter, safer, smaller, and healthier. Auto fatalities are only low compared to previous years of auto fatalitie

Anything into 'Enterprise' or government and this is what happens. High touch SAAS is the term. I think it happens because that the way it has been done with the people that control the money for a long time.

It is the same as Basecamp. Marketing. Everyone hears about your company and knows you are all remote and so people want to work there. You can then pick and choose the best people from across the world.

Still have a Nikon D70 from ~2004 that has only about 6 megapixels but will take better photos than any phone made today even using lenses that were made in the 1970s. It is hard to describe to people without showing them but the sharpness

I understand why people like driving. I drive plenty and have two cars and live in the USA. There is no option but to drive in most of the US, so people do and it can even be enjoyable. It really is a tragedy of the commons situation though

At least around me, people buy houses that are not in walkable places not because they can't afford somewhere else. It is because they can get some massive new house with a huge yard and gas is cheap so long commutes are fine. We subsi

Hong Kong and plenty of other cities have had the same exposure to the virus as NYC but have handled it better. There are plenty of places that are much nicer to live and have a medium density but are much more friendly to other ways of get

From my experience, status pages usually are out of date unless they are internal. If you want the real info and are seeing issues on your end, check Twitter or open a ticket. Usually Twitter is faster.

Microsoft seems to be happily improving their OS and non-cloud products as well. They are a big enough company that they can be competitive in both.

Note that this does not address the fact that high bumpers are death for pedestrians. This addresses the issue of collisions with cars, but tall vehicles in general are really bad for pedestrians.

I think in many cases zoning and the way land taxes are done are a big problem holding cities back. It's not legal in many cities to make things walkable, bikeable, transit friendly due to laws like single use zoning and parking minimu

I can see where it would be valuable, but it may cause more traffic (and therefore traffic jams). If it is cheaper and easier to drive and people can live further away from work with no penalty, it will lead to lots more cars on the road. I
