That was a fun but small happy hour gathering. Maybe doing one of these weekly would be a good idea. It'd have to be in the late afternoon/evening Pacific time. Let's see what the interest is for time of day… WHEN WOULD YOU MOST LIKELY JOIN AN ONLINE HAPPY HOUR?

Like many folks, all @NotionHQ just switched to full remote AND we're super new to this 😅

So we started making a list of the best advice to build this muscle 💪
What should we add? (We'll keep updating!)

I’m on my couch with my MacBook Pro drinking tea while watching the news. This tweet was a whole bunch of gender normative stupidity, even if it was meant innocently.

literally reading this on my pink 12" MacBook sitting on my pink couch right now.

Anyone have advice for Bluetooth HD camera I can use for Zoom conferencing? I want to mount it on my TV for AirPlay video chats w/ kids, but I don't want to use camera in laptop or iPad (because it's too distracting for my 2yo and he grabs everything and anything)

There's also this kind of thing: https://www.solaborate.com/hello2 Basically an android device with a nice camera that plugs into a TV. Wouldn't do FaceTime, but it works with Zoom and stuff.

"I wonder where the FIRE folks are now?!"

Right here.
💸Comfortable after saving 75% of my income for 5 years.
💸 Cut discretionary spending when times were good.
💸 Figured out how to be happy with less.
💸 Picked a portfolio allocation that planned for times like these.

Now that all modern browsers support SVG favicons, here's how to turn any emoji into a favicon.svg:

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"; viewBox="0 0 100 100">
<text y=".9em" font-size="90">💩</text>
</svg>

Useful for quick apps when you can't be bothered to design a favicon!

Was there 🥃 involved?

Absolutely! Actually the first was a work virtual happy hour where a coworker who has a YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/cocktailchemistry taught everyone how to make a daiquiri live on zoom 😂

Absolutely! I was in two Zoom parties last night and it was a blast!

Hear me out.

Okay, I’m just spitballin’ here but what if, just what if when this pandemic ends we switch over to the metric system and get rid of daylight saving time?

Boom.

This quarantine is affecting everyone in the work force, but it especially sucks for men

We're losing $1 for every $.79 women are losing

My kid is always playing Fortnite with his friends on my phone, and I cannot see the appeal, it's literally just a conference call with occasional shooting

My home studio...

I tore it apart then had to build it back up at the last minute so no comments about the cables! I'm cleaning it up this weekend.
