i'm sure FB isn't going to fail but i am wondering if it logistically won't be possible. i mean menlo park is under shelter-in-place and if you asked me a couple of weeks ago i would not have imagined an intern class could be productive on WFH.

Shelter in place is until april 7. They can maybe extend it a little longer but not by much because otherwise half of people end up being exempt due to homelessness
I highly doubt the shelter-in-place order will be lifted before mid-May.
I kid ofc what’s actually going to happen is

a. Everyone will start ignoring it

b. Actual bread riots

c. All of the above

Stay positive, Menlo Park in general isn’t the most social happening place on earth (the irony of the largest social network being headquartered there). Any spread there would happen at the actual Facebook offices. It’s not a hotbed and should be fine by summer.
