I nearly did, but I got complaints.
It helps that I have a file of "future posts" for TotD - I dug into the reserve to come up with reasonable / appropriate ones.

Lots of bed rest, tea, and chicken soup, and no stressing about work should have both of you on your feet in short order.
Feel well!

Great news!
Now keep track on your oxygen level.
I suspect you don't own an oximeter. So watch out if you feel lightheaded, that's a warning sign.

We were happy to hear from you; not knowing makes you imagine the worst.

From what I read, the disease attacks red blood cells and strength will slowly come back. Here's the rub; brains don't like to be low on oxygen and don't repair like muscles.
You take it slow. Once food has a bit decent taste again, you both go relax in the garden with a big nice BBQ and do a private party. Development can wait; there'll be enough work left if you return later than planned.

Great to hear you're both recovering so far.
Further to Chris Maunder's comment, beware the cytokine storm.
Stay safe, keep on getting better!

Good to hear you're both doing better even if it's still not normal

Thank You, for providing those reports - good information is always welcome.
Please don't push yourselves to hard; slow and steady wins the race to good health.

An infrequent poster, but I've been following your updates. Amazed at how upbeat you have managed to be during what is surely one of the most stressful and painful episodes of your lives.
Look after each other and don't try to do too much too soon!

Damn, there goes my dastardly plan to catch up to your high score while you were ill!
Glad to hear you're both improving.

There's still time - I'm nowhere near ready to return to normal.
Go for it! Good luck!

Glad that you are through the worst of it. And thanks for sharing the progress reports as it brings home the reality of the current situation.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Thanks for the update. I guess I'm fortunate enough not to know anyone in my area who's come down with this, so hearing from someone first-hand is important to keep things into perspective.
Get well soon, bud.

For Desktop & Apps, Any Labels, alerts , Dialogs we show on the UI,
We centralize them on a STRING resource file or a settings file. It'll be centralized.
So we give this file to a content expert who reviews and send back the corrections.
How does this work on a webpage.
This can even be centralized? I have no clue.
What's the best practice?
If we are centralizing the Content repository in a Key-value pair (let's say PHP)
It's gonna bring down the performance if there are hundreds of Labels on the page.
Or this has to be a in a JSON file and be used in Javascript.
Or, I don't do anything, just hardcode all the text, review the 200 pages one by one, the brute force way.
I guess the question I've asked is inevitable for a Multi-lingual site like Facebook.
Just wanting to know how this is done the best way.

The best performance within a browser is to have as much static content as possible available.
The best performance on the server is also to have this.
Many of the "active" web technologies (PHP, ASP, CFM) have some sort of template or include page functionality. Utilizing these allows the majority of the elements common to a multitude of pages to be able to be edited in only 1 place.
With that, as time has progressed and frameworks have come in; a lot of features to make things easier to build also do have a performance hit. An example of this is within ASP.NET MVC; we can define a Model and even over-ride how it will be displayed elsewhere...
public class Student
{
public int StudentId { get; set; }
[Display(Name="Name")]
public string StudentName { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
} Which can be utilized on the View page like via @Html.Label("StudentName")
to render this HTML: <label for="StudentName">Name</label>
While this is perfectly valid and does allow us to change this in one place... It comes at a cost as the View is rendered at runtime; involves some overhead, and does have a performance impact.
A diligent designer would just put in the static HTML that is rendered and remove the Display attribute from the Model as it is no longer needed. For messages within Modals, it all depends on how dynamic do they need to be. Most likely I would place all of the common ones which require little customization into a Messages.js resource file and have that file loaded after page_load is complete.
You did mention JSON, which is more for data transmission and storage than it is for libraries. While you could populate your message library from it; the process in itself would have penalties due to processing time in the browser and would also have a size penalty.

This question would have been better asked in one of the forums, so as to prevent the answer from getting lost.

My (immediate) Boss is so upset the bigger directors don't plan the resources well but crush the deadlines, it's like giving a broomstick to fight a war where Saber & Blaster guns are used. He was mad. He was furious and yelling.
I told him, okay listen boss, This is what the management could give, And with that, this is what we could deliver. So why we have to be upset about it?
Boss: I am not Upset. I am NOT Upset. I AM NOT UPSET. I'm just telling YOU what the HECK is happening.
Me: ... beep .. beep.
haha he needs some rest.
