Maybe I'm like everyone else

There have been a few cancellations, remixes and otherwise abnormal changes to my schedule. I'm sure you can guess why. I've had the John Hopkins dashboard open since I discovered it two weeks ago.

On Friday the 28th of February, there were 137 cases in northern Italy. Currently (though this number hasn't changed since 4pm yesterday, so I'm guessing it's not entirely accurate) 12,462. Almost a 90% growth rate. Maths.

"Getting through coronavirus will be an exercise not just in building societal resilience, but relearning the values of cooperation, compassion, generosity and kindness, and building systems which institutionalize these values. It is high time to recognize that such ethical values are not simply human constructs, products of socialization. They are cognitive categories which reflect patterns of behaviour in individuals and organizations that have an evolutionary, adaptive function. In the global phase shift, systems which fail to incorporate these values into their structures will eventually die."

I believe there are some serious dark numbers, and I wonder when it's coming for me. Don't panic, but please educate yourselves on that thar virus – it's coming for you too.

A friend joked that I am a "De-influencer" after I explained that this place is an internet image phenomenon and in reality it's not magical and may make you angry. So I was grabbed by the "Anti-influencer" term used in this post. They aren't the same thing. I'm more of a skeptical critic of anything with mass appeal, whereas this article is about "Harbingers of failure", an interesting subset. But given that they aren't really a subset, just a mess of random, maybe they're just more daring then the rest of us?

The indispensable Bryan Behrenshausen, Master of the Open Organization community, pulled together our various series in a massively useful "save for later" reading list. Our community has recently been granted "official" status by way of becoming hosted under the Red Hat's Open Source Program Office. Bryan did that too, and I'm grateful and excited about being one of the first "we don't build software, we build knowledge" communities supported in this way.

It is a bit intimidating to stand on the edge of anything ever. Maybe more so in this day and age. It's scary to stare into the depths of the unknown. But I like to watch the tiny stones the tips of my toes shake loose tumble down and into dust.

Maybe I need help?

What's on your mind lately? You should write me, we're all going to be quarantined soon, so might as well have a pen pal.
