    what WFH has really brought to light is how miserable car-dependency and suburban sprawl is.

    The problem isn’t going to work, the problem is that for most people going to work entails needing to drive a car for an hour, and it’s actually insane that people have just blithely accepted that until now.

      Nah, being at work was driving me towards a nervous breakdown. Open office + management that liked to just drop in at my desk uninvited and without a heads up had me an absolute wreck.

      I did not handle the panopiticon well.

      You could place me next door to the office, and it would have been the same.

      This is what I was thinking. I’m very lucky to live somewhere where I can live without a car - even here in Helsinki, that’s not always possible.
