One fact that blew my mind recently is that Cleopatra is closer to our present time than to the creation of the pyramids.

Makes sense. I'm not sure there's a job I wouldn't leave for 3 months free money. Especially if I was confident of my talent and abilities as an ex-Twitter engineer.

I can't wait for inevitable Billions episode about Gamestop. Dollar Bill is probably going to lose it :)

Mesh Wifi.
I used to have 3 base stations scattered around the house with different names and it was a hassle just connecting to the closest wifi point all the time and also switching between wifi points when I move around the house would result in a connection interruption.

My company has been WFH since mid-March. I've loved being able to just start working instantly after waking up and finishing my morning routine, but one thing I've really missed is the 30minute drive home after work. That period of time was effective in resetting my brain from "work-mode" to "home-mode".
It's been hard going from shutting down my laptop straight to playing with my kids, it seems like I'm part-zombie at first and not as lively as I would be later in the night with them.
When You're Accustomed to Privilege, Equality Feels Like Oppression. The world doesn't need to imagine, because we had to stand by while the US launched illegal wars in Iraq, continues the unjust economic sanctions on Cuba just just for election politics, or all the shenigans the CIA pulled in South America in the previous decades. Heck just this month the US has said it will ignore a WTO ruling[1] just because it says so and everyone will have to stand by.
The multipolar world threatens Americans so much because they'll finally have to live like there's another version of themselves in the world.
