No, but I did see a dude without a mask in the grocery store last week. He was trying to strike up a conversation with me and I said a few things and moved away from him. I saw him leaving the store without buying anything. Not sure if he was trying to make a scene and was disappointed that no one cared that much about him or if he got kicked out.

He provided context in the very next sentence. In the state of New York, you cannot legally be evicted if you can't pay your rent right now, so logically, people most likely wouldn't be committing crimes to pay their rent.

I think "factually impossible" is a bit strong, but... If the risk of not paying rent (eviction) isn't happening, then people most likely aren't going to commit crimes in order to get money to do so.

so much for dat 'herd immunity'

I think the whole "herd immunity" theory is weird in the first place.

We heard "It's just a cold" and "It's just the flu" from those types for the longest time. I'm pretty sure everyone has gotten colds and the flu multiple times in their lives, so I'm not sure why one would think you would have immunity to COVID-19 after getting it once if it was "just a cold" or "just the flu."

Yeah, the death counts will likely continue to increase, following the trend for case counts.

266 fatalities between Texas and Florida yesterday. 1001 for the US as a whole.

Are the hospitals overwhelmed and are deaths increasing at the same rate as new cases?

Hospitals are starting to get overhwelmed. Houston has been raising alarms about this for almost a couple weeeks now. Deaths typically lag behind the new case count, but death counts are increasing.

Old job:
  • Constant 60 - 80 hour weeks being the only network engineer for the whole company
  • Company trying to expand too fast for how many people they have in IT to support the existing stuff and the expansion
  • Company didn't want to pay me more to make working that much more tolerable
  • Company didn't want to hire more people so that I didn't have to work that much
  • Too many people outside of IT making decisions about IT infrastructure
  • Couldn't take a real vacation because I always had to work
  • Tons of "priority 1" projects popping up all the time, pushing other things back for years


New job:
  • Network team is now about 16 people (A new person just started on Monday)
  • Offshore support to handle minor issues overnight
  • Network team is segmented from network security
  • Multiple teams of people segmented by region to handle on-site work
  • My boss assigns me a few things to do at a time and is careful not to give us so much work that we're working more than ~45 hours/week
  • When I take vacation, I don't have to worry about work


So much better. I'm hoping I can be here for the rest of my career.

TopicAm I missing something or are COVID tests just a false sense of security?
CableZL

Not really a false sense of security... We really should be doing testing repeatedly somehow. It should be understood that if you test negative and then meet people, you have just renewed your risk of exposure. Even with that, we have tons of people refusing to quarantine, refusing to keep distance from each other, and refusing to wear masks.

So we're screwed

I think you have to notify the DMV of a change of address within a certain period of time in many states. In Texas you have 30 days.

TOPEKA, KS (KCTV) - U.S. Rep. Steve Watkins has been charged with four counts of voter fraud.
Watkins has been charged with interference with law enforcement, providing false information, voting without being qualified; unlawful advanced voting; and failing to notify the DMV of change of address.
The charges stem from the 2019 local elections. Watkins used a UPS address on his voter registration. His office said it was an honest mistake and he later changed it to an important complex address.

Huh, actual voter fraud

Essentially what it comes down to, is some people have mouths that are good candidates for what smile direct club does, so it works for them

but many people do not. In real orthodontics you would be being monitored regularly by a doctor who can make sure everything is working well and adjust as necessary

what smile direct does is put the onus on YOU to know what amount of pain is the right amount of pain for orthodontics, and to make sure your bite/jaw isnt getting fucked up

Im pretty sure if you look over your agreement with them you have to agree that youve been to the dentist in the past few months. Ideally you should be visiting the dentist in conjunction with this treatment

so I guess just know that there are risks to this. If it sounds too good to be true, well...

I see. The only time I've felt any pain at all with this is the first few days of putting the bottom aligners in and it was mostly just discomfort and a slight amount of pain that goes away after a few minutes. The last 3 days of using the 1st set of aligners didn't hurt at all, so I'm assuming that means my teeth are adjusting properly.

We'll see. Thanks for the info, though.
