      @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.

          @paulg I'll admit that you come across very different in person than online. I am not so sure I do though..

          @paulg @codinghorror so youre saying 10Gbps Connection wouldn't be a high enough bandwidth to outweigh in-person?

          @paulg maybe the bandwidth is too high? Any chance that in the future we will see offices as less productive legacies? @codinghorror

          @paulg @codinghorror Exactly. Pair debugging/programming, Q&A, lunch, coffee, impromptu brainstorm session, solve problems together.

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

          @paulg @codinghorror I agree with Paul. I also will admit that I will create a deeper relationship in person that over electronica.
