wide stance posted:I'd think travelling while working remote would be prohibitive due to the lovely wi-fi everywhere and time zone differences. ime the timezone doesn't matter as long as I can make the one meeting on my calendar and I can go full days without pushing a branch so wifi doesn't matter that much

I do this, you can't just treat it like a holiday (it isn't!) and have to plan around the fact that you need somewhere good to work. I tend to stay 1-2 months in a place and almost always go to a coworking space 4 days out of 5. This works out great as you get to pick you appartment so that it has a nice walk to the coworking space, and ime good coworking spaces are just as pleasant as top tier offices, mainly because you have to choose to go there. I also tend to stay within 1-2 hours of my teams office hours, but that isn't too hard a burden as we're in Europe so that's still plenty of cool places. For example, today I'm going to have a quick sandwich for lunch with my partner and then we're going to go for a half hour walk on the beach.

I’m working from home this week because I don’t want the plague. I’ve already cannibalized my desktop for input devices. this morning’s plan is to acquire a monitor because working on a laptop sucks.

Apparently I’m going to be working from home for the next three weeks. I usually run out of motivation after two days out of the office so this is going to be interesting.

Remote work is great but I have daily/weekly chitchat with other wfh people and go to local meetups and have coffee/happy hour with locals. I also live with  my wife and travel like once a month so shes not sick of me. It rocks. gently caress offices.

also: - just get a god drat routine with strict schedule: get dressed before work, have meals and breaks at fixed time periods, and keep at it - take time to report the things you are doing to coworkers; overcommunication is the name of the game when remote - get a distraction-free environment for things (and block some URLs where you'd lose too much time if you can) if you can't keep yourself from watching tv or playing videogames - make use of the benefits: you control temperature, got your own fridge and kitchen, have no commute, can listen to whatever music out loud, etc. - you also control the lighting and may have the ability to open windows, so do some additional environmental control because you just can and you should as well The thing you can't help easily is getting good audio equipment (a solid wireless headset that doesn't tie you to your computer) and good home office equipment (a good chair or a sit/stand desk with a decent monitor), but they also make a huge difference in terms of not being dead after 2 hours of work.

I’ve been working from home this week and I’ve gotten approximately jack poo poo done. on the other hand I do get to call in to the 4 hour meeting I have today so I’ll be eating snacks and playing with my dog while those other guys are trapped in a room with increasing CO2 levels

Feisty-Cadaver posted:nothing, I know, but seriously lol. identify the fundamental problems of why our software performance is complete poo poo. here’s the summary: high up ivory tower architects designed a pure architecture, unsullied by real world considerations. when we told them this doesn’t work for us because we actually need to do things, they hand-waved away any problems and we were stuck trying to make it work. it didn’t work. series of big meetings where architects, without admitting any fault, eventually roll back their stupid design to something functional which was what we asked for in the first place.

one of my coworkers had his very young daughter frequently waltz in during meetings, and he’d take the time to introduce her as she liked just sitting and watching people talk. after a while she’d hear the hangouts sound, pop in and just go “is this James???” in that small voice because that was her favorite coworker of his and she liked to watch em.
