Diary from the Quarantine
Day 17 of the quarantine Over 2 weeks have passed since the lockdown of Italy. Several things happened in the last few days: - Over 2 billion people are now in lockdown; think about it, over 2 billion people must stay at home now! - Rules here in Italy have become more strict: not only all non...- Ubu_roi

Diary from the Quarantine
Day 11 of the Quarantine: We are slowly adapting to this new reality, that contains much less noise. I feel almost guilty in saying that, but in some ways my working and personal life are better than before: not having to answer clients' calls, not having to do live lessons allow me to...- Ubu_roi

Diary from the Quarantine
Day 8 of the Quarantine It's interesting to see how businesses are reacting to the disruptive changes we are living. One of my customers has a yoga school, and has set up online lessons for his customers. I helped him with the web site and software setup. Who knows, potentially he may even...- Ubu_roi

Diary from the Quarantine
Day 6 of the quarantine After 6 days traffic is down 75% in Rome: the air is crisp and there's a quality of silence you can usually only experience in the countryside, or in the mountains. It also helps that most of the air traffic is no more. Police are stopping people, especially by car, and...- Ubu_roi

Diary from the Quarantine
Something funny: All barber shops are closed in Italy right now, so the is no way to have your hair cut. Something I didn't buy when preparing for this mess is a hair clipper, which I promptly ordered on Amazon. Tomorrow will be the first home made hair cut in my life...- Ubu_roi

Diary from the Quarantine
As for personal life, things are quite surreal in Rome, Italy. I woke up one morning and: - I cannot leave Rome without a proven reason: health, work, emergency; - All bars, restaurants, pubs are closed; - All shops, except food and items considered necessary (electricity, cleaning and some...- Ubu_roi

Diary from the Quarantine
In Italy (almost) everything shut down on Monday March 9th, and everyone is firmly invited to stay home and not get out unless they have a good reason that can proven (work, health, emergencies). My thinking is this will happen in many other places in the near future (I truly hope I'm proven...- Ubu_roi

HOT!I''m posting here the decree that is now enforced all over Italy since today. I believe this may happen in other places in the next few weeks: 1) All public gatherings are strictly banned in public places or places open to the public. 2) All events and sport competitions are called off, except...- Ubu_roi

HOT!A few date ago I wrote here to @ChickenHawk that it would be ok to visit Rome. Unfortunately this is not true any more. Shops, bars and restaurants are still open, but museums, most attractions, and theaters are closed. What’s worse though is that everything is evolving very fast, and not for...- Ubu_roi

HOT!I live in Rome. If it may help, everything‘s fine at the moment, very few corona virus cases. attractions, restaurants, shops, theatres and museums are all open, with very few tourists... might even be a good time to visit. No reason to panic. everything south of Rome is also safe at this time...- Ubu_roi

HOT!You are afraid of getting sick, which is understandable, but you should also worry about your surroundings. Personally, I would get to the country where you have your citizenship, especially if it's in the first world. Italians were recently treated like they had the plague recently in Israel...- Ubu_roi

HOT!On a side note, if you haven't this would be the perfect time to read "The Stand" by Stephen King: I think it's his masterpiece. Obviously it's about a virus, but I won't tell more than that. I believe we should be able to laugh (almost) about anything, so I hope I won't be offending anyone...- Ubu_roi

Non fiction book publication
EXECUTION RANTI'd say that it's definitely worth trying. I've written a niche technical book in Italian, and self published on Amazon. I have spent 0 on marketing and no efforts at all on building a public, except a few posts on LinkedIn and a few chats with friends and customers. The result is about 500...- Ubu_roi

Next MJ DeMarco book?
BOOKSHi MJ, I've read something similar, where entrepreneurship is (an important) part of the story. It'a a very entertaining and easy to follow "science-finctiony" story, called Re-start, and you can find it on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CKRMLJB/?tag=tff-amazonparser-20...- Ubu_roi

Fastest Way to Build an App?
HOT!Ok. In this case I would have a look at Flutter: it's a framework made by Google that's relatively easy to learn, and you can build for iOS and Android with the same code base. There are some excellent tutorials at pluralsight.com. With a single month subscription (30$) you get all the courses...- Ubu_roi

The Cult of Dan Lok - Brainwashed Student Lost $26,000 Testimonial
OFF-TOPICI totally understand that the "victim" should take full responsibility in falling into the trap. This is beyond doubt. But I also think that some of you are misguided in thinking that an ethically wrong practice can make a sound business. @Kevin88660: A coffee is a coffee: if I want to pay...- Ubu_roi

The Cult of Dan Lok - Brainwashed Student Lost $26,000 Testimonial
OFF-TOPICI'm not sure I can agree with that. What's described here is deliberately exploiting people weaknesses and handsomely profiting from that process. If nothing else, it's ethically disgusting. Is a 5K treadmill a scam? Of course not. But let me ask you this: if a seller, specifically...- Ubu_roi
