What stood out to me was the similarities between “Agile”/team-management rituals and the game, the affects of both have been similar in my experience.

Interestingly, a lot of the “pain points” highlighted here between in-person and zoom-based communication align with my experiences as a “neurodivergent” person, some examples:

(1) low audio quality making it difficult to understand the speaker/easily distracted by background noise, (2) lack of access to non-verbal communication channels like body language requiring dedicated brainpower to understand the speaker, (3) dysmorphia brought on by hyper awareness of one’s appearance, (4) lack of adherence to societal norms in conversation

I feel like remote work has leveled the playing field in a way that requires everyone to be explicit in their communication.

Sorry about that, first time posting: https://www.dispatch.com/story/news/local/2024/08/29/data-ha...
