      @photomatt If you find it odd that most founders prefer to have people in one place, why not try asking some why?

      @photomatt Maybe they're not all simply stupid. Maybe distributed teams work better for some products than others.

      @paulg @photomatt when you imagine the future of work, particularly in technology, is it a bunch of people in a physical room? Is it?

      @codinghorror For future = 10 years, yes. In-person is so high bandwidth in so many subtle ways.

          @migueldeicaza @paulg is coffee and lunch and hallway chats worth losing one of the best minds in the world to another startup or country?

          @codinghorror @paulg I would make that decision based on the circumstances. But claiming "Paul is Wrong" skips over all the needed nuance

          @codinghorror @paulg Very confrontational title, while good content, it lets the assertion on the title stand.

          @codinghorror @paulg but that these admitted vulnerabilities grow trust faster and deeper. And trust is badly needed on uncertain ventures.
