A Coronavirus Tipping Point
It’s not a problem until it gets to the lungs.
That probably means that the highest risk is to people whose lungs are already compromised, from smoking, or asthma, or other things. That might also explain why there have been no reported instances of it killing kids.

What are the chances of someone in your company getting it?
South By Southwest
Wow. It’s been canceled.

VPN Routers
OK, now that I’m back on the air, I’m thinking that with ExpressVPN’s limit of five simultaneous devices (at least for the low-cost plan), I should use it for mobile devices, and do something else at home. I’d like to install it on the Netgear Orbi mesh, but ExpressVPN doesn’t support it, and it might not have enough processing power to do all that encryption anyway. But I can pick this up for $140 bucks. Could I just put that downstream from my cable modem, and feed the Orbi with it for the home wifi, freeing up my ExpressVPN account for phones, laptops and tablets? It might also allow me to access my home machines remotely, except I don’t think I have static IP.

Existential Hope
I was introduced to Allison a couple years ago, but only briefly. I really only got to know her a few days ago, at a Foresight event on lunar governance. I hadn’t realized that she was so interested in space.
Anyway, she is a brilliant and very charismatic young woman, as this video demonstrates.
