The Corona Virus will force us underground for a billion billion years!

Just heard South Africa is going into national shutdown and only essential businesses will be operational. (Hospitals, food, water, etc.) We currently only have 402 cases.

What's interesting is that our systems are internal (not connected to internet almost at all) so I need to setup our git repositories to be accessible from internet so I can work from home.

I am honestly done with COVID-19

Happy 🎂 day to me 🎉

Oh and this cute ball of floof

Dressing efficiently for video calls: Half shirt and tie, half pajama pants.

No freaking pants!

I get to sleep with the hot secretary...

i.e. my wife

So my boss asked me why I came into the office when it was said IF POSSIBLE, work from home. And i told him 'I am practicing social distancing from my wife.' XD

Didn’t shower. Didn’t fix my hair. Wasn’t asked a hundred questions that could have been easily Googled. Got to chill with my one-year-old while waiting for Magento 2 to reindex. Lovin’ it.

Netflix while working 👌🏻

First time working remote.

My manager sent us all remote. I am a student in apprenticeship with a school doing remote work too.

I caught a slight diharrea, doing some C in the WC.

Is this distubing if I find myself more productive on the toilet ? xD

Working from home and I'm being watched!

1. I don't have to use headphones to listen to music. Can listen in speakers and avoid my ears being sweaty
2. No random interruptions from anyone. Interruptions are usually from slack messages and emails which I can decide when to look at
3. Have a solid 1 or 2 hours for coding (because of the above 2 reasons)
4. The time spent in commuting is instead spent on nap or relaxing

You're under lockdown? Lonely?
Time for good old https://chatroulette.com/ 😄

who remembers?

Unicode 13 just came out.
Yay.

The place I currently work at doesn't allow homeworking for consultants. RIP

Prediction:

eSportsing is the sportsing of the future.

It's pandemic-proof.

For security purposes, it should be good practice to lock your pc when you walk away. At my office, we practice harmless pranks when someone forgets, to "teach them a lesson". Usually just involves reversing/inverting displays, reversing mouse buttons, or changing the desktop background like this (because everyone is a closet bronie apparently)

Mark your territory by licking people's stuff. Thanks for my new laptop Gareth

We're all working from home starting today.

My university is still active, bigger school events are being postponed though.

So, I went right into working after getting my bachelors in computer science. The company I'm working for is overall pretty good, I think. My colleagues are really nice people, my chef is a super chill dude and overall its a nice workfield.
There are weeks or even months, when nothing happens though. I go to work, fight through boredom and tiredness and go home. I had several months in the last year where I didn't write a single line of code.

Is this normal? Should I come to terms with this?
I didn't become a software developer to basically sell my lifetime.

Damn true.

Programmer like working at night (at least I like working at night). Would it be cool if there is a company which the work hour will start at midnight and end at early morning?
Customer facing side of the company can work the regular hour while developer will work at night.

Lots of stuff for my new rig is being delivered today. Sadly mobo+case won’t be here until Monday 😭😭😭

We are forced to work from home until further notice . i am hating every second of it. Being home and not gaming or binging on anime / netflix feels like a punishment. im more productive in the office.

Project bugs...

In the office I had the dashboard with coronachan stats and the map on the huge tv but the HR told me to stop that 😭

Downside to being a computing student:

I need my PC to study, but all my distractions are on my PC so it's really hard not to get distracted while studying.
