Re:Programmers are most likely to work from home by blktiger on Wednesday April 12, 2017 @11:18AM (#14098496)
My previous job wasn't really setup to do remote work but we had a second team working almost 12 hours opposite (Romania vs Kansas). The "offshore" team was paying a heavy tax because everyone was working at the office, so we had a ton of hallway conversations that never got documented anywhere they could access it. Even though everyone knew this, because we were co-located it was extremely difficult to overcome because it's just so easy to not document things. When your entire team is 100% remote, you are forced to document things a lot more since there aren't hallway conversations unless you specifically video chat with a single individual.
