[00:45:17] <Bytram> I won't change it because it's best for someone else (besides the author) to push the story out to the site, whenever possible.
[00:46:53] <Bytram> chromas++ So, it's still all yours; just add in the part from above. Thank you for the great catch!

[01:16:13] <AzumaHazuki> i hope trump and pence both get this virus and fucking die from it
[01:16:32] <AzumaHazuki> it would serve them exactly right for their willfully-incompetent handling of the outbreak
[01:21:06] <Bytram> and their utter dismissal of the risk of their going to rallies (IIRC) but at the same time stating that the Democrats were doing it. Please don't quote me on that as it is late, and I am certain that was not the exact wording. But there was a huge sense of self-justifying their actions while belittling the behavior of the "other side".
[01:22:53] <Bytram> chromas: I just added a disclaimer to that story about the rational for my writing it the way I did.

[08:56:11] <janrinok> carny, did you bother to read the comments on that imgur link regarding testing for COVID-19 in Ireland, you know, the bit where a doctor working in Ireland says "I'm an A&E doctor working in Ireland. This post annoys me. We are taking serious precautions with all patients with respiratory symptoms."? Why should we believe you or imgur in preference to other sources?
[09:03:06] <janrinok> I'm not debating the progression of COVID-19 but to WHO Joint Mission Final Report states: The cellular infectivity of the isolated viruses could be completely neutralized by the sera collected from convalescent patients. Transgenic human ACE2 mice and Rhesus monkey intranasally challenged by this virus isolate induced multifocal pneumonia with interstitial hyperplasia. The COVID-19 virus was subsequently detected and isolated in the
[09:03:07] <janrinok> lung and intestinal tissues of the challenged animals.
[09:05:07] <janrinok> If you cannot - for perfectly good reasons which I accept - reveal your 'inside information' then we will go for the best substantiated sources for our information. This is a site that looks for scientific fact, not memes and claims from imgur, Twitter, Facebook or similar.

[10:00:11] <janrinok> ~gday Bytram - I cannot understand why people will accept social media claims as truth but also claim that scientist are all paid shills
[10:00:12] * exec fanatically experiences a Stanley Cup of Uranus with Bytram
[10:01:03] <Bytram> Yep, show me the money^W supporting material
[10:01:20] <janrinok> ... or the money, I'll go with that ;-)
[10:02:01] <Cascade> Sounds like something a shill would say.
[10:02:09] <janrinok> lol!
[10:02:11] * Cascade squints in Phillip Fry
[10:03:10] * Bytram once took a course in college which started with the Peano postulates that there exists a thing called "one" and a successor function, and from that added some axioms and a whole bunch of theorems (which we proved along the way) and eventually developed: natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, real numbers, irrational numbers, and complex numbers.
[10:04:19] <janrinok> there are several interesting quotes in the WHO report e.g. "From phylogenetics analyses undertaken with available full genome sequences, bats appear to be the reservoir of COVID-19 virus, but the intermediate host(s) has not yet been identified."
[10:04:24] <Bytram> something like 15 years of math classes were eventually pulled together in the most amazing way -- so much suddenly made sense in a way I'd never seen before!
[10:05:05] * Bytram squints under his armpits. Nope, not there! =)
[10:05:19] <janrinok> https://www.who.int
[10:06:22] <janrinok> sorry about the lack of contributions yesterday - it was a v busy day for us.
[10:07:26] <janrinok> anyway, perhaps Trump will ban my contributions seeing that I am in Europe....
[10:07:51] <janrinok> something about a horse and stable door springs to mind
[10:08:22] <Cascade> Nay
[10:09:18] <janrinok> this morning I need a good laugh - I've receive one v funny email and several good quotes on here. It will be a good day!

[10:13:52] <Bytram> ova their?
[10:14:08] <janrinok> just rein in your enthusiasm for a good pun
[10:14:54] <Cascade> Your horseplays are keeping me glued to my seat.
[10:15:04] <Bytram> yep, we're just having some good, clean pun!
[10:15:11] <janrinok> saddle do for me!
[10:15:34] <Bytram> I'm sure that's bound to spur some udder bad yolks
[10:16:04] * janrinok regrets logging on this morning.....
[10:17:05] <Cascade> Is making all these horse puns making your voice get a little...
[10:17:09] <Bytram> thankfully, things went... smoothly... this morning and I was easily able to get a logout
[10:17:10] <Cascade> ruff?

[16:13:53] <Bytram> janrinok++ Yowza! That has to be our largest merge, ever! I'm about to push out a new story. Do you want to keep the time you picked for the coronavirus story? I can set my release time to whatever
[16:13:53] <Bender> karma - janrinok: 86
[16:15:10] <Bytram> on 2nd thought, might be best to give us some extra lead time to process the merge; I'm putting my story out at the next "logical slot" and will move the CV story later.
[16:20:19] <janrinok> as you wish - I'm not sure how long it will take us to finish it, so the selected date/time is just a guess.
[16:22:10] <janrinok> do you want to merge your CV story into the roundup?
[16:23:37] <janrinok> There was a lot of duplication in those 23 subs, and a lot of it was simply out-of-date so I removed it if it had been updated elsewhere. Chasing figures is pointless IMO - they are changing hourly in some cases
