      20) I know of very few software companies that couldn't go full remote permanently. I'm not predicting any historic shift at this point though, mainly because I thought we'd see most tech firms commit to permanent full remote in week one of the lockdowns, and that didn't happen.

      21) As Adam says, the parallels to Gulf War II and Katrina are striking. Absolutely none of what we're seeing is a novel failure mode. https://mobile.twitter.com/Aelkus/status/1255828023166844928 …

      22) We see in recent history a correlation between high outdoor temperatures and civil unrest. It's likely that this will be a very hot summer politically, given the other pressures covid exerts. And if people riot, who can really blame them? Things are spinning out of control.

      23) The poor have a right to be angry, and while they don't have a right to lash out violently it's totally understandable if they do. The society that failed them for decades is failing them again in their time of acutest need.

      24) Whenever I see the lines at food banks I think "the future is here, it's just not evenly distributed yet".

      25) The Discourse is fouler than ever, in particular the smug condescension aimed at people who question the necessity of strict lockdowns. When the history of this is written it won't look kindly on those who decided to impose a depression on top of a pandemic.

      26) The argument that there is a direct tradeoff between the level of allowed economic activity and human life is one of the most simplistic, fear-driven, fact-free pieces of reasoning I've ever heard, and it is established blue tribe orthodoxy at this point.

      27) The lockdowns continue because nobody at any level of government has a plan other than protracted martial law. No central quarantine, no mass testing, no tracing project, no rules for firms to restart safely. Just martial law and politically determined "essential business".

      28) Meanwhile we're sending positive cases home to infect their families. We're cramming people into centralized supermarkets that become hotzones. We're not applying pathogen control measures that were well understood by medieval port cities centuries before we had germ theory.

      29) National test and trace isn't gonna happen soon enough, because we didn't start in January. Central quarantine likely won't happen in enough places to matter. The idea that the state is even capable of executing effectively against this virus is a dangerous pipe dream.

      Replying to @mattparlmer

      National test and trace isn't going to happen ever because USG doesn't have the competence to actually execute that complex a policy. This is because when USG hires staff it uses two criteria: 1) "Diversity" 2) Hostility to Americans Personnel is policy
