  • Yep, well put. I love working remotely, but would appreciate once/twice a year having an off-site to get to know some people in the company on a more human level, or so I know who has a dog, so they can send me pics. As you said, during work hours it’s hard to get away from the transactional nature of the conversation.

    The other thing I’m always worried about, is when grads join the company. A lot are coming from an environment where they’ve been interacting in person on a daily basis, and now their only interaction is online.


















  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) is usually a good thing to enable in order to make it more difficult for an unauthorised person to login to your account remotely, as they will need that second authentication to be able to login.

    Unless someone has access to your computer, then cookies & history don’t really matter. However, if you login to facebook, and then leave your computer open for 10mins, someone could open up facebook again and you would likely still be logged in. If that’s a scenario you’re worried about, then you could erase all your browsing session data to ensure that you’re effectively logged out everywhere.

    Edit: below 2 links are also good to check if your email and/or your passwords have been leaked as part of a breach. Before using them, I would do a bit of research on the site to make sure you trust it. Always be sceptical with sensitive info!
