JPMorgan's Jamie Dimon delivers a stern warning to remote workers

Reply in thread

Fully remote is the way of the future, in tech anyway. Use the money you saved on not renting office space to fly teams to the same area for a week or so a few times a year, there’s definite value in meeting, working together in person and going out for a beer afterwards

But make it optional and don't penalize folks for not showing up. The last thing I want to do is meet up with my coworkers and go for drinks especially given the fact that I do not drink alcohol nor enjoy social outings in general.

Retiring Romney unleashes on GOP colleagues

What you're arguing for is, essentially, enlightened centrism. An enlightened centrist will view one side wanting to kill 1000 people and another side wanting to kill 0 people and say we need to meet somewhere in the middle. You can see how that's actually not good, I trust.

Aging Politicians Are Only Going To Get More Common

This won't do what you want. We'd still have unlimited money in politics, we'd still have hyper powerful lobbyist influence, and we'd have far more ignorant Congress folks for both to corrupt. Term limits are a non-starter until we get the other issues squared away and Democrats in the House passed massive election bills last session. Unfortunately, the Senate is broken by Mitch so that's fun.
