I’ve been WFH but my wifi has been struggling with Skype and I have to present during orals tomorrow - am I insane to go into the office? I’d book a private room for myself and I’m walking distance?

No you’re not insane. (As long as you are not sick). Transmission is likely like flu - via respiratory droplets. Steer clear of others - keep distance - etc.

I’m confused by all these posts about Product Owners. I’ve worked at 3 Bay Area-based tech companies over 6 years and never heard of a Product Owner. As a product manager, i work with my engineering and design partners to figure out what to build and then build it. What role would a product owner play in all this? My honest assumption is that this role was invented by companies that want to pretend to be doing agile but aren’t really, but I’m open to being proven wrong.
