Or you could just organize an itinerant huge macro festival and invite all people after a week home "arrest". Then see how corona accomplishes the same without having to throw bombs and destroy all the landscape.
Same result, less destruction.

I haven't seen that, but did see this a few minutes ago on the BBC website:
If they do not accept the advice, they would then be given a fine. However, fines won't be issued until Parliament passes the emergency legislation - which should be by the end of Thursday.
The Home Office could not say, at this stage, how big the fines are likely to be.

Fairly sure it was on the BBC news last night, but it's repeated here: Coronavirus: UK lockdown last for up to 6 months with on-the-spot fines - Business Insider[^]
But to be honest, the list of "reasons to be out of your house" are so broad that it'd be really difficult to prove intent unless you are caught 100 miles from home and work with a bucket and spade in the back of the car ...

Although people were idiots all flocking to the same places at once, I think it's also a convenient excuse for what was going to happen anyway.
There again I was an idiot for going to Tesco at 6:15am on Saturday - because everyone else thought it would be quiet at that time.
I don't think there is much else that can be done.

The Air Force just sent out an email asking people to only use VPN when it's absolutely necessary.
Well, because of their over the top and absurd security policies, we CAN'T WORK unless we're VPN'd in. F*ckin retards...

Yeah, I sort of said "no" to not being able to work offline; no multiple monitors; etc. It's the "data" that's important (usually).
Screen shots will still capture "code"; VPN or no VPN.

Point out to them that what they're doing is taking your guns away because they're short on shells, then telling you to practice by dry-firing the guns.
They might understand it in those terms.

is more difficult with multiple personalities: mine have different definitions of "in," and "out."
i have the same problem with them that Alice had with Humpty-Dumpty:Quote: "I don't know what you mean by 'glory'," Alice said.
Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. "Of course you don't- till I tell you. I meant 'there's a nice knock-down argument for you!'"
"But 'glory' doesn't mean 'a nice knock-down argument'," Alice objected.
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean- neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master-that's all."
Alice was too much puzzled to say anything; so after a minute Humpty Dumpty began again. "They've a temper some of them- particularly verbs: they're the proudest- adjectives you can do anything with, but not verbs- however, I can manage the whole lot of them! Impenetrability! That's what I say!"

... who has just been paid a significant amount of money to set up the IT infrastructure for 20 employees to work from home.
And because of where he is sitting he can monitor how many of them actually are ... four.
But as he says, he's paid to set it up so they can, not report how many actually are ...
But if you are working from home, it's probably worth knowing that your activity - or more specifically your lack of it - can and probably will be monitored by somebody. 'Nuff said.

Depends - I guess - on how you are doing it. Remoting in would be best for security, but presumably would give the "best" monitoring as far as the company is concerned. Source control systems would reflect your push / pull stats, as if you were working at your desk.

No sorry again. E.g. Push/Pull for a Source Control System does not even count.
What counts is simply: You work for a week on a specific job and the progress to reach the target counts. E.g. did I implemnt this or that requierement so far.
And all this can neither be measured in online time, push/pull from whatever, only the testers answer counts
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question
