    The two people concerned in the article both study computer science.

    I’m not saying that there aren’t benefits to being local, but generally-speaking, software development is one of the fields easiest to do remotely.

    I’m not saying that companies are always open to that, but it can be made to work.

    There are a lot of jobs for which that isn’t a realistic option, true enough. You can’t be a plumber remotely. But of all the examples that they could have chosen, this seems like an odd one.
