It is indeed important that serious research and conversation arise on this topic. The bomb is ticking.

Lots of good advice in there. Per usual quite some of it also makes sense in non-remote teams. Not sure I'd do everything exactly in the same way but that gives a good overall idea of the important points.

Very good rant which explains nicely why rewriting some software from scratch is almost never the right answer.

A good reminder of why you don't want to mess too much with the VCS history for systems with long term maintenance and several stable releases.
