  • I’ve been going for an early morning walk (6.30 w/d, little later w/e) to maintain my sanity and have noticed the early morning crew are much better at maintaining social distance that the day crew.

  • One and bit percent of WordPress users is still quite a lot of users and makes dropping support for legacy browsers complex…

    Now’s your chance to help the project set up some guidelines.

  • A typical 2020 dinner party.

  • Making dinner plans with @thewebprincess. 7pm over Zoom because that’s how people socialise in 2020.

  • The local cafe @milkingstation has been taking COVID-19 very seriously, in today’s episode of things that wouldn’t have seemed possible in January: spots on the floor telling customers where they should stand.

  • Harvey Norman have a 14 day change of mind policy.

  • If (and only if) your income is safe during this time, please go and tip big at a cafe today, think about what you usually spend on lunch each week as a baseline.

    Again, only if your income is safe (I work in media, for example). If it’s at risk, look after yourself first.

  • if you’re having trouble focusing on work, or anything else, it’s not that you’re terrible at working from home or bad at your job. It’s that you’re doing this in a set of circumstances completely unprecedented in our lifetimes.

  • Current earworm. I can’t think why.

     

  • I’ve worked remote for four years but this is the first time I’ve worked from home rather than an office or co-working space. I’ve replaced my train commute with a walk around the block to allow for a mental switch to work mode each morning.
