    What a great article. Practical and poetic.

    It would have been nice to have a connection made to Flow, since that’s what was being alluded to throughout, but maybe excluding Flow was deliberate in some way I’m missing?

    Sounds a lot like what Joel Spolsky was advocating for since 2003, although now it’s easier since most people already have a private office, just not in “the office”.

    So you can lock them in.

    If I remember correctly there was a Japanese videogame studio who did that in the 80’s they locked their development team in the office. I can’t find the article any more though.

    So they can listen to Aphex Twin at max volume with their robot ears and not frighten all the non-robots.
