Ask HN: Did you experience any positive side-effects of the pandemics?
The current pandemics gives a pause to many social activities. By necessity, many gatherings and classes were canceled; furthermore, remote work was introduced in many workplaces.
I would like to ask which things you found useful thanks to remote works, remote learning, or canceling other plans?
Did you discover new approaches, tools, or other things that you would like to share with others?
I mean both practical (e.g. "it turned out that meetings were not useful", "doing classes online makes it much easier to create re-usable materials") and other impressions & reflections (e.g. "it turned out that reading a book in my own place was more relaxing than skying in Italy", or "it became socially acceptable to say to no parties").

Also, I've discovered how lucrative it is to have clients in the USA when you are in another country (Australia) that is going through a pandemic-driven currency collapse. Every client has just given me a 10% pay rise.
I like friday (option expiration day) where time premium is minimal and correct guess will bring you 100%+. Incorrect guess will make you lose 100% :)
But the key is if you think that market is going down - you can monetize this move.
