Are remote teams growing slower?

2 points by tabletzone ↗ HN
Remote work is great for some jobs. Maybe even millions of jobs. But early-stage startups? Maybe not. The spontaneous collision of insights is vital for an early-stage startup.

Co-located companies tend to perform better from 1 to 10M and 10 to 75M, although as rev goes up difference dissipates. Over that, not much difference. All big companies remote essentially. Spontaneous collision of ideas can only happen when you’re working in the same place? Not Necessarily. We are an early-stage startup, and we had been thru the same communication struggle. So We built Tappy to address that issue. We want to share it for free.

Tappy is an audio-first workspace, initially designed for : 1: Instant problem solving 2: Creative brainstorming 3: Social talk

i've been working remotely for 7 years. on site once or twice a month usually. this time around its much different though. the companies i've worked for during the pandemic have fully embraced remote work. its nice because we overlap 4 hours during normal US-business hours and then we work whenever we want the rest of the day.
