The greatest benefit to a schedule is having your analytics and data consistent so you can tell when something may have changed algorithmically.

But I have no reason to think they’ll be orders-of-magnitude wrong. Even if your personal risk of death is very, very low, don’t mock decisions like canceling events or closing workplaces as undue “panic”. 26/n

From a BBC News story:

Facebook is closing its London office for the weekend …Staff members have been told to work from home until Monday.

Wait.

Just completed the first full OAuth round-trip request, ever. Ping me for more info on how to get started with OAuth on Twitter. :-)

Hmm. The more I think about this, it might be okay. Who wants to hang out on zoom, drinking and cooking/eating homemade BBQ? When the first person on the call gets sunrise, we switch to breakfast burritos.

The challenge with doing a remote SXSW is that no amount of video conferencing technology can replicate Texas BBQ, followed getting drunk in a series of Austin bars, then recovering with breakfast burritos the next day.

A lot of us have sort of made fun of virtual events for years

We do know that getting on jets and meeting prospects and customers works, and is important

But what will be interesting is someone now will find a way to re-imagine boring virtual events into something new

Scientists: you should wash your hands because of Coronavirus.

People: I'm gonna stop flying, hoard masks, work from home & totally rearrange my life.

Also Scientists: the #ClimateCrisis will kill millions - we must use clean power & change how we get to work.

People: No way.

Here’s what’s going on with conference organizers right now: a thread of unknown length because I’m rambling. [1/?]

This week my twitter and FB feeds are brimming with people discovering remote work, or praising their company for allowing it... welcome to business as usual for @Auth0 :D

I READ ON THE INTERNET THAT HAND SANITIZER DOESN'T WORK ON VIRUSES, JUST BACTERIA. Good news, the internet is wrong! It works fine on viruses. If you have some, go ahead and use it. If you don't, use soap.

Running is great because the longer you run the more it puts other things in your life in perspective as not as terrible as this run, right now, ugh, fuck🏃🏼‍♀️

Have security cameras everywhere. Insure everything. Don't make youtube videos showing off your location. If you are shooting inside your YouTube studio don't show out the windows. Don't shoot in your backyard. Delay instagram story posts. Otherwise you're a sitting duck.

Strictly speaking I think they are all spec compliant because the oauth2 spec left out so much stuff. Same net result, except this way all the providers have the moral high ground.

Tailscale users: "Cool, you do Wireguard!"

@Tailscale in reality looking like: 95% NAT traversal & other packet routing, 4% oauth/2FA stuff, 1% WireGuard on top.

(And the 95% part ain't done yet.)

I went to my local Costco today and replaced the signs for sold out items like toilet paper and bottled water with signs for magical items like: health potions, dowsing rods, tarot decks, summoning orbs, soul gems, healing crystals, and invisibility amulets.

🧻—>🔮

That's a rookie mistake right there. A good manager would have kept at least one summoning orb in the back so they could summon more orbs.

Here's how I did it. 1. Use a USB to serial adapter to connect the ImageWriter II to a Yosemite Mac. 2. Install the ImageWriter II drivers: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6621 3. Use AirPrint Activator to advertise the shared printer over WiFi.
