Recently we were hosting Remote-first Online Conference and some speakers like Kaylie Boogaerts (People & Culture Manager at LaterPay) and Iwo Szapar (CEO of Remote-how) were covering similar topics.

It'll be great to join your discussion and find more about remote culture and distributed teams.

Distributed teams — the future that's already come for the IT-industry. It's awesome to see so many companies like GitLab, Doist, Buffer, Xapo and many more, have been employing the use of distributed teams for a while now.

Also, it great to see Time Doctor in the award list. Last week we were hosting Remote-first Online Conference and Liam McIvor Martin (Co-Founder at Time Doctor) was one of the speakers.

Re:Ask HN: How do you manage to work remotely with kids? on Sunday February 02, 2020 @12:58AM (#22215410)
Well, that's a hard one. Raising a child is overwhelming enough so putting work on top of that is not making things easier. If you can do something like daily 'shifts' that might help. I suppose hiring nanny is also crucial. If you want to work at home try to make a separate room for your office.

I'd recommend watching Andrei Rebrov (CTO & Co-founder at Scentbird) and David Tabachnikov (Co-CEO at ScholarshipOwl)

I'd recommend to check out remote job boards and see which languages are on high demand right now. In our experience that'd be python, ruby, php.
