Hand-picked articles, stories and ideas from the remote work community and beyond.
The Geography of Remote Work
Lukas Althoff, Fabian Eckert, Sharat Ganapati, Conor Walsh | Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis
We show that cities with higher population density specialize in high-skill service jobs that can be done remotely. The urban and industry bias of remote work potential shaped the recent pandemic’s economic impact. Many high-skill service workers started to work remotely, withdrawing spending from big-city consumer service industries dependent on their demand. As a result, low-skill service workers in big cities bore most of the recent pandemic’s economic impact. Our findings have broader implications for the distributional consequences of the U.S. economy’s transition to more remote work.

How to Remember What You Read
Shane Parrish | Farnam Street
Learning means being able to use new information. The basic process of learning consists of reflection and feedback. We learn facts and concepts through reflecting on experience—our own or others’. If you read something and you don’t make time to think about what you’ve read, you won’t be able to use any of the wisdom you’ve been exposed to.
