My guess is that your performance might be a bit better if you didn't have to bang through the Chinese great firewall. If anything that will get a nice stress test. For Zoom If their front end is truly cloud native then they can scale laterally until the cows come home. Business continuity is about to get a stress across all industries. Most remote access services are set for a subset of the actual population of the company due to historical numbers. If its just licensing then that's easy. Pay more and unlock more user licenses. Now if they happened to have sized either physical equipment and say bandwidth on their circuits to a subset of their user population then this is about to get stressful for some people in corporate America. I just had a meeting with a customer that is running their egress internet traffic at about 85% normally. We have been begging them to upgrade for years. But why do that when you can push the equipment to the brink and survive. Well we gave them a pretty sad state of what is about to happen when they point their large user population back inwards when they all work from home. Good luck, god speed to you.

Okay one point of parliamentary procedure in the forum Jack. Its okay to revise part of a post to fix a typo. Its hard however to follow a line of thought when you go back to posts to add about 90% more content. Shadow editing makes your posts almost impossible to follow and read.

Lead the way...I will hopefully see you in the future times, after the sick sick time.

You are a walking contradiction. You were just advocating mandatory quarantine and now you will wait and see until more info comes out.

Y Good luck with your self quarantine. Remember to seal up the home with saran wrap and aluminum foil. The first creates a virus barrier and the other keeps the government from reading your mind. I hope it works out for you.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/04/us/coronavirus-new-hampshire-dartmouth.html And here is the problem with the quarantine idea here. Humans doing human things.

Dude you are ready to lock up the entire country into their homes for the foreseeable future. This is a bit beyond, I am washing hands and taking this calm.

You are already in a panic. My guess if you had a fever and a cough you would be lined up at the emergency room letting your next of kin know that you had a grand life. Actually I know how easy it is transmitted. That's why I don't believe a shutdown will work. Because the minute you start letting things go back to normal all it takes is a few people to reignite this again. Quarantines are great. I wonder how many Italians scattered out of Italy before this got locked down. "We are issuing a quaratine at 9pm" .... Until there is a vaccine that everyone can take, with how infectious this is. This is just playing wack-a-mole.

Actually I do. The problem that is going to happen is that there will people like you flooding the emergency rooms if you get a sniffle. It must be the coronavirus and its obviously fatal for everyone. So lets crash the ER. Meanwhile in the ER you are going to pick up Flu A, Flu B, or a whole laundry list of things that can fuck up your life for good. Like my anti-vaxer neighbors who go to the emergency room everytime their kids get a cold. BTW did you get your flu vaccine last fall? You know flu also kills, not at the same rate as Coronavirus. But the flu is a well known killer and has been linked to many pandemics. Now the flu vaccine is a best guess. But you got it right. Go hide in your cave. Good luck.

Its in the wild. To be safe you will have to stay in your house until you can get immunized for it. You okay staying at home and surviving until October? Got enough canned goods? Now remember when your gas gets cut due to lack of workers or the fact you cant pay your bill anymore you better have plan B ready. DId you start choping down your trees and getting the firewood ready. I mean will need to prepare for when the gas gets shut off and you need to cook the 7 cans of chef-boy-r-dee you have in your cupboard. Remember to check the expiration dates on your mac and cheese, your tuna, and the whole cream corn. If the water gets shut off remember hopefully you live in an area that has a high water table so when you dig your well that it wont waste a lot of your energy. Spring is coming so insects can provide protein. I hope you are good with cleaning the animals you hunt and kill in the safety of your backyard. With the disease there is a 3% chance of death. My guess is if we tell people to stay in their homes until October, probably a few more are going to die. I feel like I am reading the Stand or something. Christ get a grip. This is a serious pandemic. But in the end we are not ready to bunker in our homes for months. I know how to hunt, fish and survive. I dont think I could do that here regularly with the game we have in the area and not without travelling a bit to get something that would be sustainable. I could probably eat a bunch of canadian geese, ducks, rabbits and might be able to fish. But then again I would need to leave my home. So if I am going to do that, can I just go to the grocery store and get dinner.

No you don't understand the ramifications. Do you think that people have enough food and resources to stay put for a month or so? I mean eventually you will run out of resources. People dont plan that well. I have a stocked freezer and I could probably get away with staying home for a month. As long as my heat stays on, my electricity works and my water runs. What happens if your electricity has a problem, or your gas. No one to come out and fix it. They are at home like you. Maybe you can use your home depot dust mask and go into the back yard and hunt rabbits. Cook them over a fire you cant make on your own. This isntthe hunger games. Most people do not live with infinite resources or plan for long term survival at home. Most of the food in your fridge has an expiration date that probably is before the date you would need to stay in by.

Shut what down? The United States? For how long? You realize that its months before we get a vaccine that can be produced in the quantities needed to create herd immunity. We have a very infectious disease that will pop up the minute you allow humans to interact with each other. The minute another visitor from another country, cruise ship, or community infected person shows up and interacts with the general public its back in the wild. Unless you are a doomsday prepper you are not ready to go offline from humanity for a few weeks. Toliet paper will be the least of your worries if you think you are going to crawl into a hole in the ground and just wait this out. So do you have enough food to survive for 21 days in your house today? I mean if you get to quarantine and hide, why not the food delivery guy, what about the plant worker, the garbage man, what about the health care professional. I mean they all have family and people they love. The problem with shutting it all down is that no one is there to keep the lights on. Remote access and working from home is cute as a white color worker. I can do my job from my house everyday. I never have to go in. But the rest of humanity cant do that. And some workers need to be out and not at home. Until there is a vaccine that everyone can readily get this is a fools errand to think we can stave off with quarantines here and there. The concept of this just being about greed doesnt take into place how connected our economy is. So unless you are a doomsday prepper you are not ready to sit in at home and wait this out for a month or so. I cant wait for the anti-vaxxers to come out of the woodwork to protest the eventual shot.

The same reason that Brian Anderson almost had his number retired in Arizona as well. The curveball dont curve so much there.

Eric Creesey is an amazing hire by the Yanks.

Interesting hire.

When Felix Hernandez gets signed we will know that Hahn is a puppet and who is pulling his strings.

If he gets anymore under the radar we will be looking at the 2020 offseason to get someone.

King Felix and Miley

If your plan is to destroy the fan base, go ahead. Trade Moncada and Gio. I endorsed the rebuild on the idea that it would eventually end. I could go and support the Pirates or Marlins if I wanted to see the endless roster shuffle.

If they "rebuild the rebuild" I am out. The rebuild was sold as young controllable talent and then we would add the missing pieces via FA or trade. If they cant pull the trigger due to price now then the future costs are really going to spook them. You are never going to build completely on your own. All teams need something.

Well remember. We can afford to absorb this contract. I hope to god we don't "save money" by kicking in a better prospect.

Their payroll today is south of 90 million. No I didn't think we were going to get Cole or Stras or Rendon. I did however think they were going to spend a little money. Think of all the money they wasted last year on the friends and family plan. Its depressing.

Outstanding timing. The responses to this tweet are good. This is my winner for best reply.

Yup that 94 strike killed what would of been a nice deep playoff run. That was the best team in the AL, if not baseball that year. Then we get it settled just In time to have the Indians get real good.
