Remote work is a hot discussion topic right now as president Trump moves to eliminate it from government work. For those who are still allowed to work from home, this new focus provides a good chance to rethink how to get the most out of these arrangements. In today’s episode, Cal presents three foundational ideas about what makes remote work from his reporting, and for each provides concrete advice individuals can apply to make their own virtual setups better. He then answers reader questions and ends with a tech corner focused on what the law says about whether social media should be banned for kids. Below are the questions covered in today's episode (with their timestamps).
