THREAD: You may have heard Priti Patel several nights ago at the daily briefing say that if you are unable to speak in an emergency to dial 999 and then press 55 and you’ll be directly connected to the Police. This isn’t STRICTLY true As a 999 operator by trade let me explain

An ICU nurse after working 65 hours over the past six days. This is the face we should be seeing on front pages, not the charlatans who have cut/underfunded these heroes for decades. You say #buyapaper but perhaps it's time to represent the people of the UK not the privileged few

"We will be with our friends again; we will be with our families again; we will meet again." In a deeply moving and personal message, the Queen has called on the country to "remain united and resolute" to overcome the #coronavirus crisis. More on this: trib.al/EqDtjmy

Firefox is working properly. The "unintended behavior" is that the Twitter devs only ever tested whether the cache is kept in Chrome after using a non-standard Chrome-specific way to have the cache wipe itself. Basically the "our page works best! in IE6!" of 2020

Post details

Hugs to Twitter engineering who had to deal with their security incident. Frowns at Twitter comms for phrasing this to sound like it was somehow Firefox's fault.

Ever wondered how the @zoom_us macOS installer does it’s job without you ever clicking install? Turns out they (ab)use preinstallation scripts, manually unpack the app using a bundled 7zip and install it to /Applications if the current user is in the admin group (no root needed).

One good thing I sincerely hope will come of this is dramatic increases in pay for those traditionally low-paid roles that have been absolutely vital for our survival during #coronavirus - now more than ever can we see the true value of all sorts of people's work.

Tessa Cooper (@tessacooper5)Mon, 23 Mar 2020 22:37 GMT

The world will never be the same after we recover from COVID-19. Every time the government said they couldn't find money for a program that benefited citizens, a lie. Every time your manager said your job couldn't be done from home, a lie.

Thinking about creating a free course to run through setting up a @Shopify store for the DIY brick and mortar store owners who want to get up and running on their own. Any recommendations for a course platform? Preferably free since I won't be charging for this?

This might gross people out but IDC. A sign of depression for me is I lose the will to brush my teeth. In the past I would go 2-3 days without unless I was going out. You need to recognize your “early warning signs” for depression so you can get help before it’s too late.

A funny thing about quarantining is hearing your partner in full work mode for the first time. Like, I’m married to a “let’s circle back” guy — who knew?

Thankful to everyone who participated @IndieWebCamp London online this past weekend. Met a friendly, diverse range of folks, discussed, learnt, made stuff for our websites. No different to any other IWC except we all did it from of our own homes (calumryan.com/note/3461)

- Make messages fully formed to save a whole day cycle - Expect a response when it's inconvenient for you - Mute your mic when not speaking - Be overly expressive, you are a tiny thumbnail - If people aren't speaking, try to give them time - Try to look at the cam not the screen

Post details

Some remote communication tips: - Keep emails short and to the point. Bullet points are your pal - Never DM someone in Slack with “hi” and wait for their response. Go straight in with the reason you are messaging them - Don't expect immediate responses. Remote = Asynchronous

Friends, the current situation may make you to feel productivity shame. I feel that. It sucks. It’s okay to be offline. It’s okay not to work on a side project. It’s okay to turn off the computer after work. You’re not lazy. There’s no expectations. WFH may blur the line.
