More #covidstats: In the US, Republican states are ~44% of the pop, ~56% for Democratic states.
The state-level breakdown of #COVID19 cases skews 20% Red, 80% Blue.
Sadly, this is yet another way each side lives the #pandemic differently, from liberation to lockdown.

@flightradar24 love the app but here in Norway I can rarely find planes I see in the sky. Are they not using ADS-B or your network of receivers limited in Norway?

Sure, this is a canned demo but still really impressive vision of what GPT like automatic code gen could one day become.
A company could train one on its codebase and give each dev a silicon pair programmer

The most uplifting read in a long while. Should be added to every Lord of the Flies book. There is hope for humanity after all!

Wealthiest 25% of New Yorkers account for 10% of cases. Lots more #covidstats on the #covid19's disparities and impact on the disadvantaged in the latest FLARE newsletter mailchi.mp/f92fac59d07c/tz4i…

New #covidstats: Cases per capita in US states vs. level of urbanization. Some correlation of higher densities == more #COVID19 spread but other factors at play too
(Urbanization levels from 2010 US Census via Wikipedia)

Been exploring #covidstats. Here are log plots of day over day case growth.
#USA & #Italy: Down to linear growth recently 👍
#Singapore: Surprisingly, exponential. Why they went into lockdown mode 😷
#NewZealand: Impressive! 👏
(Data as of 4/16)

But #covid19 deaths in those countries show a different story altogether: Minimal in #Singapore and #NewZealand, slowing in #Italy, not out of the woods in #USA 😢

Good article by @sneakdotberlin on the impact of ubiquitous internet access via #Starlink and others:

Also finally found answer to whether Starlink will enable bypassing China’s great firewall. TLDR: not yet
Just attended, enjoyed and appreciated “An Evening with @DavidBegnaud”, one of the best reporters on all things #PuertoRico. Bit of a love fest but understandably so, David cares deeply about our island.
That’s David holding his dog Paddington Boricua.
Katrine & I drove a car-load of supplies to a baseball field in #Guayanilla #PuertoRico. It’s now a camp for 300 people whose homes were destroyed by the ongoing #earthquakes.
Sad & heartwarming to see so many in need and so many helping young & old alike.
❤️🇵🇷

Latest #PuertoRico #earthquake animation. Thankfully no new big ones though still quite a few in last 24 hours.
Believe most of the island has power again but victims need canned goods, tents, diapers, etc.
#PuertoRico #earthquakes starting to dissipate in the last 24 hours. Hoping the trend will continue!
