you could telecommute from home in some rural town they said.

fast forward to 2017. rural population decline now in the millions. urban centers and their immediate suburbs set to gain absolute political and economic dominance with new census numbers in 3 years.

WHY?

Human beings need to socialize and people with good jobs and disposable income want "culture" of the kind cities offer

also fully remote just doesn't work for most jobs

even when we get holodeck conference rooms beamed into our brains thanks to elon musk people will still go to the office

Fully remote is fine for white collar work. Obviously doesn’t work for trades (plumbing etc)

People want the option of socializing and having "culture" even though they rarely take advantage of it and would probably have better social lives in a small town

In the city people just hide from each other

It meshes with the modern aspect of everyone trying to find perfection given the perceived abundance of options. "I won't try to form friendships with THESE people, they're not my type. I'll keep looking, there are millions of people around me, I'm bound to find the right ones!" vs "these are the only people around, better forge some relationships". It's an issue of - GASP - diversity. In the absence of diversity, people are more predictable and relatable. The moment you diverged from the mindset of a small town American, you were doomed to spend the rest of your life on a chase for a lifestyle and social network that doesn't exist

I haven’t made the drive into scottsdale since July’. My boss lives in philly. His office is in Rhode Island. My office is in Scottsdale, and my next nearest office is Chicago.

Fuck you if you don’t believe it.
