@richardiii Dad hatters unite! No joke though, check out @tilleyofficial Ive had mine a few years now and its perfect. Throw it in the wash, fold it up in my back pocket, sit on it, loose it on a kayak or whatever, mine always seems to bounce back perfectly.

@richardiii I'm no expert but this is my understanding too. It's not about stopping the virus, it's about slowing the spread so the health care system can respond and doesn't collapse from the massive influx of incoming patients.

@richardiii This would be the most emotionally draining hour of my day.

@monteslu I think this would be brilliant for games like Gloomhaven & Arkham Horror where its typically nice to leave the game setup between sessions. As long as there are no virtual cats of course ;)

PEOPLE LISTEN:

On February 27th, Italy had 600 people infected with coronavirus.

Today, it has 10,000 cases and the entire country is on lockdown.

That was *11 DAYS AGO.*

Guess how many the US has right now: 600.

THAT is exponential growth. Do the math.

It would make the private insurance companies very, very angry if you retweeted this.

I like our CEOs responses here. All we can really do is focus on what we can control which is making the best product.

@samselikoff I've been an active Spacemacs (evil mode) after moving from Vim/Neovim. Its not perfect but the best Vim emulation I've worked with and Spacemacs mnemonic bindings/discoverability are wonderful. Also Magit as a git client is hard to beat.
