I got a remote L6 SWE offer at Google but the RSUs are too low for that level ($625k over 4 years), could not negotiate it higher. I’ve accepted the offer but trying to be hopeful that I could make it more equitable in the future if I perform well. Are stock refreshers based on the initial RSU grant or solely based on performance? Google

It’s not a single solution at one point but a moving response.
Lockdown until we’re behind the curve, then start to unlock when we know the healthcare system can cope with the cases. While we unlock, continue to quarantine the vulnerable until it’s over.

Honestly, I think slowly opening things up with major restrictions is key
And it needs to vary by city or metropolitan area.

Look at how New Zealand is handling this. We did a really tough five week lockdown very early, and are now starting to open up. We’ve had a total of 19 deaths. We also haven’t had the huge toll on the medical environment that other countries have had. If you want to end it, the middle ground is the most aggressive lockdown lasting for the shortest amount of time to stop the spreading.

NZ have done a great job but isn’t quite as connected as, say, the US or Europe. NZ is much more spread out (so less internal mingling: communities can be kept apart) and the border can be much more easily controlled. It is simply a harder place for an infectious disease to take hold.
For example, some rural state in America could probably lock down and the virus would fizzle out at the same rate as in NZ. But even if you lock down New York, the virus will keep going round and round and round for much longer because it is simply a much bigger and denser population (bigger than the whole of NZ in just NYC).
I was really glad to hear that NZ has done well, though :) Amazing country.
