Tech against Coronavirus

Hello guys,

I just wanted to share with you a list of tools that i believe will help in case you are forced to work remotely and this took you by surprise

In my city we just started testing the working from home process and i found this list very helpful summarizing some apps you might need

The list is here

Thanks for posting this list.
One could argue that most of the modern tech products/solutions can enable anybody to work from home, that being one of the most efficient measures one can take to prevent the spread of an infectious decease.
I feel like the biggest barrier is a culture of "bums in seats" that's holding us back.
That said, there are certain jobs that cannot be performed from home, and those people will be the most affected by this crisis.

We under-estimate the advantages we currently have, working remotely.

Imagine being forced going to work to earn money for food and children from 1347 to 1351 during the Black Death Plague, that took estimated 75-200 million lives.

yes, indeed this is a great advantage but our sector will also be affected by the economic crisis generated by this virus

the fact that the production factories are forced to stop working will brake the economic chain and all of us will be affected sooner or later

but again, you are extremely right about our advantages

Thanks for posting. Unfortunately, my boilers and chillers, though connected to a network, still require a physical presence. Good job!
