Transportation is a big and growing problem and this exceptionally interesting HN discussion is a testimony to that. But, no mention of a potential to reduce the problem by increasing the number of people working remotely from home and eliminating part of the transportation demand. Any thoughts on this?

Tax breaks for companies that implement 4 day work weeks / off peak commute times / WFH days?

If I ran a company I'd want my employees to have shorter commutes anyway. A stressful drive in the morning can't be great for productivity.

I can't imagine remoting will be that huge a chunk of the market for a long while. Even in software whenever I go over postings its usually only about 20% that offer remote as an option - and in practice software development is one of the most remote friendly careers.
