Hand-picked articles, stories and ideas from the remote work community and beyond.

Kit Eaton | Inc.

Remote work remains highly popular and provides particular benefits for employees who face challenges in conventional workplaces.

Stephen Wood | The Conversation

Homeworking is characterised by paradoxes. In my study, many employees missed the social side – yet the lack of interruptions was a positive consequence of this. One employee called homeworking “a two-sided coin. Yeah, I really enjoy the ability to concentrate better and focus, [but] I miss being able to engage with people [in] daily contact.”

Learn from companies that are succeeding with hybrid work models — by building teams that are rewarded for performance, not appearances.

Henley Wing Chiu | Bloomberry

I analyzed nearly 180 million global job postings from January 2023 to October 2025, using data from Revealera, a provider of jobs data. While I acknowledge not all job postings result in a hire, and some are ‘ghost jobs’, since I was comparing the relative growth in job titles, this didn’t seem like a big issue to me.

I simply wanted to know which specific job titles declined or grew the most in 2025, compared to 2024. Because those were likely to be ones that AI is impacting the most.

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell drew a stark picture of a labor market that looks fine on the surface—4.3% unemployment, solid consumer spending—but is quietly losing momentum underneath. Once you adjust for statistical overcounting in the payroll data, he said during a press conference Wednesday following the FOMC meeting, “job creation is pretty close to zero.”

Your pesky remote freelancers demanding more money as inflation soars? You could try replacing them with AI agents instead — but it probably won’t work out well.

Frank Landymore | Yahoo News

You know it’s going to be good when an AI executive goes off on a tangent about “hey, what’s a job anyway!” while addressing — or failing to address — the topic of how their tech just might wipe out entire categories of human professions.

Steven Malanga | City Journal

Pandemic lockdowns and remote work have ignited the economies of small metro regions and rural areas, posing a challenge to big cities.

Anne Trafton | MIT News

New research shows attention lapses due to sleep deprivation coincide with a flushing of fluid from the brain — a process that normally occurs during sleep.
