"Linus [Torvalds] likes the idea of always initializing local variables." That's new to me. I've seen and often requested myself many cases of redundant local automatic variable initialisation, don't remember seen any backlash against them.
Not an advice how to find such a job, rather one more experience with one.
I've been working as a software developer remotely from my home office since almost 9 years now, in the beginning as self-employed, since some time again in a fixed employment. For me it's a mixed experience. Clearly there are some significant advantages, but also some difficulties. One of them is that I do find, that I'm missing the even mostly silent background communication with colleagues, that's taking place when you work in an office. I was even thinking about joining some kind of a "virtual online office," but I haven't been able to find anything like that. So, I can confirm - everyone's experience is different, some find more advantages in this kind of work, others would rather prefer a traditional on-site setting.
