I work in an industry that regularly runs "Lessons Learned" at the end of projects, and we constantly fail to implement them in the next project. They go into a spreadsheet and forgotten about. I shouldn't be surprised that the same level of incompetance is prevelant in government.

Hi folks, long time no see. Boy, poo poo sure is getting cray cray, isn't it? I'm just popping in with an important update about the UKMT Solidarity Fund. Apologies for the delays in getting this started which were mostly because I broke my hand (not fun). However the fund committee has now finished selecting an account holder who is Irvine Washington. In light of the current clusterfuck going on around us we are aiming to get this account set up ASAP which does mean that we will have to temporarily use a personal savings account and then move to a more secure account once things have calmed down. This decision was made based on two factors: firstly to ensure no further delays in starting the fund but also because we don't think it's sensible right now for someone to jump between cities to co-sign an account with Irvine. We realise that this may dissuade some people from donating until the long-term account has been set up which we completely understand and we hope we will be able to get things properly settled for you soon. As soon as we have the account set up we will post again with further information.

Currently awaiting the results of the meeting at my company to decide what we're doing re: working from home. Meanwhile, speaking to the client this morning about what's going on with site visits, and he didn't understand what I meant. "Eh? Why would it change? Book the visits as normal." Holy gently caress.

Not only did they do nothing to change things, they actively did worse because it was after this that they took us out of EU Pandemic Response.

talked to boss on the sunday, he told me there was nothing in my job i couldn't do from home, but to come in on the monday advice changes, i say i'll be working from home - apparently i can't work from home, would have to take stat. sick pay, as there hadn't been any management decision. I offer to work on the ssp, assuming that they'd be changing policy zero policy changes, so i'm now not doing work at all, while they go ahead and kill people for no reason great stuff!

So looking at this NHS England briefing we have 8,000 ventilators right now, with another 4k coming 'soon'. 3,700 critical care beds and about 98,000 acute, 90% of which are already occupied. Yeah, that doesn't seem like enough. E: Oh yeah, and we're excluded from the EU-wide ventilator purchase program announced by the EU today, because Brexit. Johnson isn't Churchill. He's Chamberlain.

Chamberlain knew what he was doing, and bought us enough time to rearm even if it was at the expense of the Czechs and Poles. Johnson is Eden, a man completely unable to understand why the world doesn't work the way he thinks it does and doing irreparable harm as a result.

Okay I'm fairly sure this is coincidental/psychological but has anyone noticed just how warm the sunshine is for mid-March? Like it you're out in it it legit feels like a summers day until the air moves a bit and you realise we're still technically in winter. I'm sure I remember a similar feeling in September 2001 when all the planes were grounded, is it possible that the lack of contrails actually makes a noticeable difference?

Just been down the local greengrocers and have never seen it so busy. Tons of food (all fresh, mind) and they're offering to personally drop stuff directly at the door if needed. Morrisons on the other hand reporting fights over produce - pallets for restocking the shelves literally being swamped and scavenged from as they're being pallet-trucked round from the storeroom. Resulted in everything going straight back into the storeroom and people having to do without. Bonkers.

non-virus chat: Thanks for the Roku recommendation - after some pfaffing about I have finally got it up and running (and now having the pain of registering all those wretched accounts for BBC, ITV, UKTV, etc etc). Possibly the best thing is the Spotify - I can listen to my free spotify account on it. Even though the sound on my tv is crappy it's not as crappy as my computer sound (unless I put headphones in and I don't want to use headphones all the time). I guess I might be in the market for some new speakers at some point in the future. A few months ago, I dug out all my old cassettes and matched as much as possible to spotify either albums or pseudo-album playlists so I could chuck the old cassettes away. Anyway, that's my non-virus story for today. Ed - also, the hdmi switch works great Got my skyhd box HDMI and the ROKU plugged into two of the three inputs and single output to the TV and it has a remote so I don't have to get up and down to switch it.
