Remote Work and Getting Hit by a Bus

Noah and Ben talk about remote work and its tradeoffs. Do social interactions suffer and is loneliness an issue? What does it take to work effectively when a team is spread around the globe? And how can Ben's new product Playgroup help to solve some of the problems of remote work? They also tackle topics like documentation by default, knowledge silos, getting hit by a bus and how that should not slow down the entire team.
