Redfin: Vacation real-estate ‘toast’ as Airbnb owners rush to offload homes

I don’t think the remote work culture will last. Remote work is fine when you already know what needs to be done. So it works well in task-based jobs. But in terms of deciding what needs to be done, and planning for the future, only the most exceptionally well-managed companies have managed to make remote work effective.

Remote work, as a percent of office workers, has been growing for years.

I live in a small mountain town where the majority of people bring their jobs with them when they moved here.

After working from home (and on workations) for seven years, I finally joined a coworking space. Coworking truly is the best of both worlds. And the ski resort if only a few minutes away.

Now, with the shutdowns, I have to work out of my beautiful affordable house. Dang.

If you have a job that can be remote, you should. Cities and offices suck!

I think Apple's engineers could develop the next version of the Apple Watch remotely. But I don't think they could come up with the idea and designs for the original Apple Watch remotely.
