On: Show HN: I made a database of remote companies

This is great. One question/comment: I'm a bit confused as to what "100% remote" means in this context. Github is listed as 100% remote, but I'm pretty sure it has an office.

Also is it remote worldwide, remote for US citizens or remote in the US?

Edit: Just seen there is a "Worldwide" search filter, but it doesn't seem very accurate.

Yes, Trello is also incorrect. It lists 51 people (Non-remote: 0), but they have a significant number of people working from their office in NYC. And 51 seems low...

I expect "100% remote" means you're never required to go to the office, as opposed to going there regularly (e.g. once or twice a week/month).

On the "Add Company" form, question 7 says:

> Is the company fully distributed?*

> This means all of its employees work remotely and the company does not have an office.

So it seems the companies listing as 100% distributed may not be entirely accurate.
