shout out to all those people with really intense interest and hobbies that have heard "you must have a lot of time on your hands" from naysayers before.
They thriving right now, while those naysayers are sitting at home trying to figure out how to fill their lockdown time.

It's finally up! Check out my overview of the new @Blackmagic_News ATEM Mini Pro… it really is this good. https://jal.bz/2Seblym

Argrgrh THAT MOMENT when you’re watching the final render as a final check before publishing the video and spot a mistake. Not going to re-render; it took WAY too long. Now to see who notices. Damn. Sure wish you could replace a video on @YouTube like you can on @Vimeo!

I feel like I need an isolation vacation away from the world that's home-isolating. I've never had so many people/companies/family members all demanding attention at once. I can't keep up.

So... That's _exactly NOT_ how this works at all @Disney / @disneyplus... You can't put a TOS on someone else's platform. I am quite certain your Legal Team knows this - and you should probably consult with them. I'm sure @Twitter / @TwitterSupport would love to clear that up.

I read the other day a quote from someone who anonymously said that his company was not going to renew their building lease in San Francisco in the fall since working from home which worked so well. Said it would probably save them $10 million

I feel like a lot of the Zoom discourse is simply ignoring how much better Zoom’s proprietary video technology is. IDK if it’s some codec or networking magic, but it’s not something you can replicate or off the shelf.

7am: wow, I am so tired
10am: wow, I am SO tired
2pm: wow, I am SO tired (and hungry?)
6pm: wow, I’m still SO tired this is crazy
8pm: wow, I’m still so tired but at least I can go to bed soon
11:30pm: *fires up wikipedia*

Nothing like teaching hardware switching over zoom...
