"'Next year, we'll be able to see each other in person!'" says the host. Unnoticed, about a third of the attendees wince. They're the folks in Alaska, New Zealand, or Israel, who in normal times would struggle to attend." Count me as among the wincers. Sure, pre-pandemic I got to travel a lot, but that was only through invitations to speak, which meant that I was basically never returning to conferences. During the pandemic, however, I have been treated to a virtual wealth of conferences, and even though I have to pay for are coming in at a much lower cost. That's why the future is hybrid. (This post also has commentary on employee activism at tech companies and the absurdity of depicting 'view source' as a form of hacking).
