Most of the planet is one five-minute email away, and substrate is built for working that way.
- A CV compresses a career to two pages, a job spec compresses a company to a paragraph, and matching happens on the compressed versions.
- Post your full history, notes and code, and let the other side do the same. Two agents with full context can match directly, wherever they are.
- Diligence is one example. A codebase has no postcode, so asking what market a firm serves tells you little. Distance stopped being the barrier, and most platforms still act as if it is.
