Daniel and Manton take stock of the week’s coronavirus-related cancellations, and the events that are going on as planned despite concerns. They talk about the challenge for event planners in balancing the risk of people getting hurt vs. the potential to lose a lot of money or possibly go out of business. Finally, they follow up on Manton’s plans to strip metadata from Micro.blog images, and the ways in which urgent issues sometimes displace other goals for a given week. http://traffic.libsyn.com/coreint/CoreInt_411.mp3 Download Audio (MP3, 51 minutes) Many thanks to our sponsors this week: PDFpen: Edit PDFs with Ease!
