Are you not sure what that error means that your code just showed to the screen? No idea what to do next? Not sure where to find the corresponding log file? No idea how to reproduce it. Looks like there’s a problem with your code that needs to be fixed before it gets to the user – because if you don’t know what it means, they don’t have a chance of knowing what it means.

But in the remote world, we are trying to solve every problem with technology. You don’t need to wellness emails that tell you how long you have been in front of a screen, you know.

We know we’re all doing it. We check our email another few times. We put the polish on that last piece of code, work, idea so we can “jump” in tomorrow. We try to replicate our old routines in the remote world but they don’t quite fit so then we try and figure them out a little more. When it’s just you that’s remote, the extra isn’t as much as it normally is, but when everyone is remote, the extra grows, it grows because we’re all in the same boat and we’re all trying to figure it out.
