- Great summary: https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/03/how-will-coronavirus-end/608719/.
- After 3 weeks of bear we had a quick glint we closed this week with a +20 bull. Weird times. Not gonna last, obviously.
- The stimulus “loans” for businesses are partially forgiveable. There’s a lot of subtext there. Some forbid dividends for a year. https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/748/text#toc-id3B69C4863DF14243AE9CB042050B7AA8.
- ADP = automatic data processing. HR software.
- Watched a few altshiftx videos. The only thing keeping westworld viable.
- OneWeb filed for bankruptcy.
- Profit margins for novelty items (eg clothes) are much higher than for essential items (eg food). While sales are going up for the latter, they’re going down for the former, so profits are dropping overall.
- Flight passenger counts have dropped 90%. Wow.
- Annual performance reviews are a waste of time. If you have a good manager, they’re giving you feedback every day. If you have a bad manager, their feedback isn’t helpful.
- SPAs are obviously great for certain things, and a good direction for the web to move in. Many pros, like cross-platform cross-environment portability, ease of development, better UX. There are some cons, though: for example, google’s ability to index them. And state management complexity.
- New season of ozark. Too much work today, but will start soon.
- Lots more zoom sessions. A few phone calls. Cards, dice, keeping from going crazy.
