The mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) are kind of brilliant at a science level. I’ve had a few people in my real non-Twitter life ask me to explain how it works so I’m going to try my best here in this thread while I’m waiting for a patient to show.

If you're getting this annoying popup everytime you unlock your phone because you installed the iOS 14 beta, try removing the profile, and installing it again, then allowing the device to update to the "new" beta. Worked for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ @persival

To protect worker health and reduce corporate liability, many companies will have no choice but to allow significantly more telework for months or perhaps years to come. Is it finally time to embrace remote office work? nyer.cm/ar2bWXK

Not one time has my brain been able to process these options during an incoming call. Anyone else?

I work for the Canadian federal government and they sent out an email with work at home guiding principles. It’s amazing to work for a place that speaks like this.

Having spent 12 years building apps and working on the software-on-the-phones, I can helpfully divide the COVID19/Bluetooth Proximity tracing apps into 2 categories: 1. Those that use the Apple/Google APIs. 2. Those that don't work.

The #covidsafe app is now available in Australia 😷 However, it's a shame that they have decided not to release the source code for full transparency. Luckily, I'm a curious chap and also a professional mobile developer.
