And all for nothing. NBC drills always pissed me off. I figured, just shoot me. I won't waste anyone's time.

The Q thread is almost at 5300 pages so no.


I think the old “Blue Shed” thread was longer, too.

It's time for everyone's favorite part of the day - exponential regressions with slackster!

Best fit since 1/21 would suggest 9081 cases in tonight's update from mainland China. Average margin of error was 4.6%, max margin of error was 7.6%, so 8,663-9,499 if it misses by average and 8,391-9,771 if it misses by the max miss so far.

Alternatively, if you map best fit starting 1/16 to 1/22, and then add every new data point out of China since then and refit the line, the line is getting less and less "severe".



The black line is the trend through 1/22, the next green line is the trend through 1/23, blue through 1/24, red through 1/25, black (there is also a purple line very close to black) is through 1/26 and 1/27 (purple), and the last green line is through 1/28. The x-axis is days - day 13 is yesterday and day 1 is January 16th when China started issuing daily reports.

ETA - Red dots are the cumulative confirmed cases in China by day.

Can you be called a wishcaster if you are wishcasting for good things unrelated to a hurricane?

sleeping right under flight deck... woke up to broken arrow broken arrow(location called out was directly on top of me.... got halfway jocked up and running to where I was supposed to go... I see an intruder with a odd looking device under it being swarmed by people(all jocked Up)... I just got my gear squared away and some dude runs up and grabs my shoulder and says "your dead now, lay down and wait for a stretcher" I said F YOU Im running to my shelter... he said it's a drill you are now dead... I slept through the drill part.... took the corpsman about 30 minutes to get me off flight deck shite was miserably hot.

BNO updated their tracker. Waiting for confirmation. But this is what they have for all of China

7,087 cases
169 deaths

ETA: Looks like the only province updated is Hubei. Waiting for others to see where it climbs.

It was mostly tongue in cheek because yesterday you had people posting not about news, but made up future news.


It’s irritating because even the legit news feeds are getting buried with it.

My favorite of today: 150k new infected per day in China.........in April.

Guy on another board I frequent posted this and deduced that 100 million will be dead from this by March.

Unless there are another 1500 cases across China, that's a very promising number.
