I think because Twitter's energy is different. People intend their forum accounts to be relatively anonymous, but expect twitter to be a place where you show your name and face. Twitter is more personal.
7177Y··on Ask HN: Help. Covid case at work; remote work is being denied. EU region.
Contact your local authorities non-emergency number. This is an emergency, but not immediately actionable (you don't need a firetruck right at this moment). Discuss the situation with them and they will hopefully act accordingly.

Your workplace should be quarantined and sanitized, this is a major risk to public health. Best of luck.

And now that both halves of the two income household are working from home, well...

I'm investing in Durex.

Having a faux commute is a common sentiment. I know someone who wish leave his front door and come back in through the side door to recontectualize themself.

Best to shut down now and flatten as much as possible, no?

Much of the herd will comply. Many others will make their stand, especially with the current state of sentiment In the right wing population.

Imo (and free advice is best left unheeded): Better that you miss out on this opportunity and get to keep your IP and try again than risk you and your employees contracting a severe respritory illness.

People will understand disruptions due to Covid. It's not business as normal. Google told the entire north american staff to stay home. Be glad that you can still all be relatively productive while remote, and enjoy your runway while you don't have to pay for the lights in your offices.

It's certainly effective propoganda to calm the Populus, from the government to the population and the population to itself. Hopefully leaders are sorting out more drastic measures in the meantime.

One other way to solve this is to:

- use EMI sheilded conductors (at greater expense), or

- use twisted pairs where applicable.

I believe the CAN standard is based on twisted pairs, and they work very well for other ground/signal based configurations.

It would be nice if UberEats stock was seperate from the main ridesharing service. I'd guess that food delivery will skyrocket through "self-isolation", but obviously ridesharing is will plummet.

Can you buy ubereats specific derivatives?

This is still rumours as far as I have seen, no official anouncement from the governing body (FIA) as of yet. It is also very early in the morning in Australia (where F1 is for the race this weekend), however, and an anouncement may come out soon. Free practice will start at 9:00pm EST today, so maybe something will happen before then.

McClaren F1 have withdrawn from the GP if it should procede [0], on their own accord.

I think that self-care has become shorthand for treating yourself, when sometimes it means being responsible as well.
