@lwriemen Or just a poor/inexperienced manager. Many people get thrust into management positions from individual contributor roles with no training or mentorship and may not know what's involved in effective management. I only know because I have worked under and learned from some great managers over the years.
@lwriemen It will vary based on what "output" means for a team (engineering vs. sales vs. customer support vs. marketing vs. all the other teams in an org), but a team's manager is best positioned to know and *should* know what their team's output is. Then they can figure out what they need to do to measure that output.
@jlcrawf Started as a stock-up reaction like we see before a major storm (along with milk, bread), only nation-wide. But combined now with increased demand at home (no one using office/restaurant TP) with a static, just-in-time supply without much ability to ramp up further, it makes sense it's still hard to keep in stock.
@dallin Someone influential must have recommended it for lockdown. Personally, I just finished a big non-fiction book and tend to alternate between fiction and non-fiction.

Remember that Big Data companies redefine #privacy to mean private to others, not private to them. They still see and store your personal data:
"No personally identifiable information, such as an individual's location, contacts or movement, will be made available at any point"

TIL that creating a train wreck is a specific crime that carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison. This should give many technology companies pause. https://abc7.com/officials-engineer-tried-to-smash-train-into-usns-mercy/6069395/
Attacks like this are likely not limited to Zoom (it just has #infosec attention now). If your computer has a hardware kill switch (HKS), disable camera+mic except during video conferences. If you don't have a HKS, cover the camera in between uses: https://9to5mac.com/2020/04/01/new-zoom-bugs-takeover-macs-cam-mic-root/
