We could always lock everyone up in individual units, with no means to suicide because we would control all the tools they get access to for their own safety, and they can get two meals a day delivered to their door. The delivery person puts the ration down, rings a bell and steps away. The person inside a unit picks up their ration. And we can arrange for people to volunteer to help with making those rations and deliveries -- they would want to get out of their unit for an hour a day, so they can be productive during that hour.
Ok, i'm only being mildly sarcastic. Flashbacks from stories told by a grandfather and father. Honestly, if someone told me last year I would be typing this in a discussion on HN on this topic I would have told them they were insane. And here we are, people on HN actually discussing "stay at home" as if it was a not a big deal.
These are the people who work for Google and Facebook and Instagram and Twitter? It horrifies me. It should terrify the population.
