During today's #videochat with #sonOne, we talked about network stuff (CLNS, IS-IS, OSPF, token ring, FDDI, the OSI protocol stack, TCP/IP, IPX/SPX), job-hunting, updates on #sonTwo's work status and #Daddy_A's birthday ( did I mention that "we" ordered his NAS box? ), vehicle repairs, Star Wars/Mandalorian, imported Japanese-market Transformers toys, and idiotic people whose b…

http://status.hackerposse.com/url/21060 Almost 1/3 of cumulative confirmed #COVID-19 cases are in the US. Part of that is just “free dumb” people who object so strongly to someone else telling them what to do that they endanger themselves and others by disobeying. Also, as I told someone earlier today (US-Pacific), bosses/managers can and will overrule people’s common s…

This is over a month old, but #Brazil was estimated to have 12X as many #COVID-19 cases as official statistics reported. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-brazil-cases-idUSKCN21V1X1 [www reuters com]

Social distancing is apparently over, by grassroots decree. There are so many punters pouring in at #work that I can barely take three steps without being asked for directions. It's positively claustrophobic. One lady apologised for being unfamiliar with the store layout because she ordinarily shops in town, but was driven out to the suburbs by the crush of shoppers there. No…

My nephew used up his days off, so he returns to work today, after a month off. When he left, they'd had some employees diagnosed with #COVID-19. The organization was telling people to stay six feet / two meters apart, but expecting the same output from a process that was not designed for such distancing.

No mask requirement is okay if you have people sensible enough to engage in protective behaviors without being told (and managers at various employers that allow employees to use protective behaviors also). When people are out protesting about mandating protective behaviors while people working in meat packing plants are battling outbreaks of #COVID-19 because they work should…

Someone asked me whether I think hand-washing changes would be permanent. Answer: I doubt it. People who endangered the health of themselves and others by not washing their hands before the #COVID-19 outbreak are not generally going to suddenly and permanently be aware of the possibility of sickening someone. If they briefly changed their behaviors, one might expect it to stic…

Mechanic said my mom's car is not being driven enough (thanks, #COVID-19, for the gift of shutdowns and quarantines), so today I'm doing the outlet malls tour without stopping. Ontario Mills, Barstow Outlets (was Factory Merchants Outlet Mall), Outlets at Barstow (was Tanger Outlet Center). The last two are across the street from each other, and were once considered the large…

I should check the rate for Imperial County, California. They n…
