It is insane to ease lockdowns until reproduction number is below one

thanks to mathmatics if reproduction number is greater than one the virus will grow exponentially killing perhaps 20% of the population and totally destroying the economy. Once you have the virus under control (zero cases and zero deaths for 20 days) remove lockdown measures. As soon as you get any new cases go back into lockdown until there are no new cases.

Virtual Reality is going to be big in the next 5 years

I'm now completely convinced Virtual Reality and Augmented reality will play a huge role in our future. So companies to look out for in this area - Valve, Microsoft, Facebook, HTC, HP, Samsung,Pimax, Sony. Maybe Apple, but they seem late to the party and Google seem to have stalled. Tesla is interesting for their neuro-interface. Though the need for cars will be reduced if you can virtually travel anywhere and interact almost as easy as real life. Half life Alyx VR is the best gaming experience I have ever had.
