Why to we "really need to find a way to replicate that magic in the remote environment"?

It simply doesn't exist. Remote work, while great for junior engineers who enjoy slacking off and playing video games during meetings, should only be reserved for senior people



If they're able to play video games and not pay attention during the meeting then it's a waste of their time to be there in the first place. Stop wasting people's time with your meetings.


Video games during meetings should be a best practice


> Remote work [is] great for junior engineers who enjoy slacking off and playing video games during meetings

J/w: how large are these meetings where you notice that level of disengagement? How long are they?


My juniors would like to have a word with you about why you think they’re not paying attention during my meetings.


And I know some seniors who'd like a word about why you think they aren't playing computer games during meetings
