Well, doing nothing isn't really an option. I live right next to China.

Stock up on essentials before everyone else does, learn some Mandarin, and keep my head down while trying to move my family further away from the conflict.

Otherwise, keep going to work. Like many software developers, I'm of no use with an assault rifle, but at least I could keep earning money and paying taxes instead of panicking.
