And this is where I'm just frustrated, as it's a pretty obvious play by folks involved in commercial real estate to prop up the value of their assets.
I mean, there's a slight concern I have about workers being forced to create their own office, comparable to Uber drivers owning their own cars.

"For starters, any downsides with remote work are borne by the taxpayers and those seeking services such as permits."

I wouldn't give that dude any money at any time ever. Even the attention I've paid to that article seems too high of a price.

I dare any Harrell supporter to highlight his top three accomplishments. "Not abusing teens" and "not teargassing protesters" doesn't count.

I feel bad when I hear individual stories, but overall I hope that thousands of small businesses close and tens of thousands of people are left desperately poor as a result. As a group Americans cannot FO when they all FA if they're sheltered from consequences.

What's also bad is that a lot of these SaaS companies are packaging AI as "standard" and charging more. For example, you're shelling out an additional $100/year to Adobe or $30/year to Microsoft just for the pleasure of integrated AI slop.
