All these fuckers are our neighbors and for many of us former employers.

Andreesen is the tip of the iceberg.
I found that keeping up with people over video works better when you're in the same time zone. When I was managing teams at +8 hours and -12.5 relative hours, communication and trust just weakened steadily over time and creative collaboration stalled. Spending a week there in person usually got things unstuck.
I know people on split engineering teams between LA and Seattle who prefer all virtual and it's worked long term. LA to NY I think would be a heavier lift.

They're wrong, I'm actually very very bi.

I mean they're also the group that features the ringleaders of the worst shit happening.
Check out liftoff before you do
