undefined | Better HN

I agree that some jobs can't be remote, but that doesn't apply to the majority of tech jobs (and therefore HN readers).

Most of the people here (and at Salesforce) are paid, in theory at least, according to their skillset and the value they bring to a company.

Why should that pay differ depending on where someone is sitting when they deliver said value?

I wasn't necessarily comparing a programmer working remote with a programmer working in the office.

I mainly tried to say that if we want to have people working in factories, working as nurses or doing office work that requires working as a team in person or meeting clients or what ever it might be then we have to start to pay them more compared to people who work from home.
