I was told there would be a billion dead people in Georgia by Monday, seems like that didn't happen?

Wait a second, the top news story out of Georgia is currently Abrams endorsing Biden? Huh? How is anyone even still alive down there?

the tweet makes it sound like its an official order but its just a prediction I think: https://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2020/05/12/coronavirus-covid-la-county-stay-at-home-orders/

theres no reason for any location to extend stay at home for 3 months at a time. its better to just do it month by month while loosening some restrictions so people dont panic.

Edit: well I was wrong. seems extremely dumb.

If the permanent WFH employees relocate to a part of the country that's actually affordable, do they decrease their salary?

that'd be a great grift to live in a cheap location but keep the SF salary

what'll likely happen is they'll keep the salary, but new hires will be plucked up from the portlands, denvers, and austins of the country where a lower salary can be safely offered. the next layoff wave will primarily hit the people that are on the SF-tier salaries that aren't pivotal to operations or buddy-buddy with the upper ranks.

it's part gate-keeping to only make sure you get the finest Wisconsin/midwest mid-upper class doughy white transplants who complain about homeless; part WFH is still mostly taboo and believes in-person co-operation is better; part clique or belief that local hiring is better (e.g. stanford pipeline hiring, etc)

however much which is which, it's mostly the latter two with the former just being a nice little perk that comes along with it. seriously so many loving people from wisconsin here

and to eb fair, most tech companies have satellite offices in places like NC triangle, nyc, dc, atlanta, seattle, la, and denver. it's not "thou must live in bay area" precisely, there are a lot of cities you can be hired into offices into, but sort of depends on what you're doing for the company.
