    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I think nobody has a monopoly on "stupid" right now. And technically, these are errors of cognitive decision-making that we all fall for, i.e., "I feel fine, my friends look fine, I'm sure they wouldn't give me the disease," when in fact, COVID-19 spreads like a motherfucker even when...

    Another great website, they are specifically looking at forecasting hospital demand for beds, ICU beds, and ventilators: http://www.healthdata.org/covid/updates Currently they are forecasting that demand will peak on April 15...see charts below:

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I shoud have been more precise in my earlier post (I made it right before I went to bed). When I said "leveling off" in reference to the graph on the log scale, what this actually means is that the rate of new cases has stopped accelerating... I'll attach the linear graph below, as you can see...

    So the latest graph looks like it has some good news: as you would expect about 2 weeks into the "social distancing," the positive impact is starting to be seen in that US cases seem to be leveling off... Now the bad news...since not every location in the US has been stringent about social...

    An additional $17M from existing CI investors

    Hmmm, so if we got all of TEST to each pony up ~ $1000 each, could we "exercise" our options?

    I almost get the impression that decisions are being based more on what the economic impact would be, rather than what would be in the best interests of the people and their health & safety...

    Intelligence Gathering for Piracy/Bounty

    You might find this interesting, a group of "pirates" in the game were discussing their style of play, and maybe the most notorious of all? Harry Pottery from ED was a guest and discussed his origin story...TL;DR, they are providing a service to us! lol! I kind of agree, I just think that...

    Carrack to HH is an upgrade? Au contraire, mon frere!

    Intelligence Gathering for Piracy/Bounty

    The vast majority of "bad actors" right now are just bored people looking for any sort of gameplay. If somebody does something crappy to you, you could always try to strike up a conversation with them in chat (saying something like, "Oh, you got me with my pants down...") and most of these guys...

    Well, there also is the common sense part, too! $2T is 2,000,000,000,000. A quick check on-line says that the retail cost of a ventilator is about $20,000. I'm sure we could get them for less, but let's say we paid retail. We could buy 100,000,000 ventilators with that money...100 million...or...

    $650 Polaris?

    I'm sure @Doyzer is correct, but I don't have the patience to figure it out. I got my Polaris by buying a HH with cash for $575 (or was it $550?) and then bought a $25 CCU when the price went up (but the Polaris stayed the same). So yeah, definitely possible. If you have $650 to blow an a...
