Hi there,
Happy Friday 13th 😬. It's been wild lately, watching everything unfold with the coronavirus pandemic. I hope you're well, and taking precautions.
In general, but also in this particular set of circumstances, I find myself very grateful and privileged to have a job that's 100% remote working for a fully distributed company. The tech folks I'm acquainted with (on Twitter especially) are also disproportionately remote workers (compared to, say, my non-tech personal friend group). As such I've seen a lot of folks sharing thoughts, tips, and strategies for people who are new to working remotely, under the circumstances. I thought today I'd focus on topics around working remotely, social distancing and "flattening the curve", the ethics and economics of a pandemic, the virus itself, and some good ol' dark times Twitter humor.
