I don't know, I'm of the opinion there is no true substitute other than jumping ship to a better learning environment. I think as long as you're cognizant of it, maybe that time comes in 2-3 years, maybe sooner.
I didn't see anyone mention the rationale. Here it is:
"Twitter was acquired by X Corp both to ensure freedom of speech and as an accelerant for X, the everything app. This is not simply a company renaming itself, but doing the same thing.
The Twitter name made sense when it was just 140 character messages going back and forth – like birds tweeting – but now you can post almost anything, including several hours of video.
In the months to come, we will add comprehensive communications and the ability to conduct your entire financial world. The Twitter name does not make sense in that context, so we must bid adieu to the bird."
Right. Article is from 2012 as well. The communication landscape arguably has evolved a lot since then.
With Slack, for example, you have so much fine grained control. I don't know if it makes sense to implement a blanket "shut off communications after hours" policy
Teams channels are often much better than meetings. They might get their answers faster and for complex ones they can study it better.
Also, nobody has to be put on the spot. Leaving them waiting a couple of hours max for an answer is usually the same wait time anyway. In the meantime you can also ask refining questions before producing the final answer.
In the long run, I look forward to people and companies sorting themselves to their respective camps of "remote" vs "non-remote". Economics will prove which one works better.
