Remote is here. Now what?
summary
Uniwhere goes remote-first for 2+ years and builds Rivelop, an email client now recruiting testers; the team spans four time zones. Claims: synchronous work and shoulder-taps drop deep focus, control is an illusion, hiring widens but needs legal setups (subsidiary, freelancer, intermediary). Practices that work: 5–10 minute daily syncs, weekly backlog calls, biweekly all‑hands, OKRs, Notion for docs, screen‑share pair programming or IDE tools (JetBrains Code With Me, VS Code Live Share), and enforcing ergonomic work spots and micro‑break rules.
