We say employees when we mean people, who have a history of self organizing around human need
It’s mesmerizing to me how so many think office life is a necessity for data entry work
Nevermind open source developers building the software world we rely on via email for decades.
- dukeyukey 5y ago> It’s mesmerizing to me how so many think office life is a necessity for data entry work I think it's more about how cities and communities are set up with commuting in mind. Like, I live about an hour away from my best mate, which in London may as well be Mars. Bur our offices are literally 5 mins walk from each other, so messaging 'pint?' is SO much easier when in-office. This is just an anecdote, and things have gotten better as the city has adjusted (gotten more involved in my local community for example) but I can 100% see why people are reluctant to change.

While this may work, some companies insist DevOps means involving the entire organization and all processes, rendering the word meaningless. So in face of such inflexibility, open source software developed for open source developers works a bit differently, much more flexible.
