My team is shifting from Zoom to Horizon Workrooms and I hate it. Why do I have to be social in order to get my coding done?

I'm not familiar with Horizon Workrooms but it looks pretty cool. Why do you not like it?

I miss the days where everyone just kept their heads down and got to work.

Never even heard of that. But Zoom does have its problems.

Hey art friends, I’m a special needs teacher who also loves to teach art in my class. I’m trying to get familiar with the app Procreate. I’m having an issue with trying to copy and paste a selection from my design. It keeps saying empty layer. I would love to do a Zoom with someone who would be willing to show me how to do it. Thanks so much.

Zoom meetings have been fantastic. I can highly recommend my home group SOS. 7:30 daily. Great way to get grounded as you start your day.

The short: Would anyone be up for starting regular virtual co-working sessions? I’m thinking 2-3 rounds of [5 mins to set intentions : 45 mins of work : 10 min break]. The long: One technique I’ve found to stay focused is “body doubling,” i.e., having another person present while you’re working. I’ve had some success replicating this over Zoom/Google Meet. Everyone works on their own thing and stays muted during work blocks, but videos stay on. It reminds me of studying in the library vs at home

Has anyone seen any unique places to find UX portfolios or post jobs other than the usual suspects?
Some UX Slack channels were doing well for a while but I definitely don’t see as much traction there. Meetups obviously came and went. Even the portfolio sites like Dribbble and Behance don’t seem that same.

I am curious how other inclusion teachers are being utilized when the school is doing remote learning. I find that I am sitting in the zoom class and have very little opportunity to contribute. I am having discussions with my teachers on ways that I can better support them and the students when remote.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
