"The minimum remote team size is two."

By definition, I suppose, since a one-man shop has nobody to be remote from.

I disagree though. I'm self motivated enough to run with stuff on my own. I've built a lot of big successful things with a team size of one, and I find it the perfect team size during the prototyping and buildout phases of a project.

Sure, once you hit maintenance mode it's nice to have another person along to share the pain and help generate the discipline needed for months of refactoring and slow iteration. But when you're actually building something, I'm all about small teams.

So now we have two datapoints. If I were the author, I would have gathered a few thousand more before publishing this article.
