Whatever you’re hustling for, take note: most people/companies are shut down until ‘18. That means you get 2 extra weeks to outwork your competition.

Slide 43

Slide 43 text

That’s 3.8% more time. For perspective: Usain Bolt won his gold medals running 1.2% faster. These 2 weeks are a gift. Get to work. — https://twitter.com/NathanCHubbard/status/ 942882853494202369

If I read this madness I want all my engineers to take 2 extra weeks off to make sure we are 6% behind but healthy! That would be a massive win! — https://twitter.com/s1m0nw/status/943021874086383616
