love to see people in my industry talking up the latest bs for clout instead of helping ppl focus on the long term. Great job guys. Great job. #debbiedowner
Traffic not bad this morning. Breezed into the track. #Indy500
Have been informed that the race has been postponed. WHAT?! I mean, do you delay the sunrise?

Tried to console ourselves by getting some yeast donuts from Long's Bakery, but we don't have cash and the line is already too damn long.

Federal Reserve suspends 6 transfers per month limit from savings accounts BUT banks can still charge if you go over limited.

Never heard this in my life. Doesn't even make sense. IT'S MAYONNAISE.

I'm sure there is some (dumb) reason for the goofy estimated tax due date schedule, but while we're temporarily changing the due dates, can we get them on a true quarterly schedule? 6/15 and 9/15?? I mean, c'mon.
Thread⬇️: a tiny, though maybe not directly correlational, glimmer of hope about how things could start to return back to normal.
Re-upping for the day time crowd. If you need a moment of joy, watch my cattle dog trying (unsuccessfully) to catch a squirrel.
Please enjoy the video of my dog Astrid living her best life chasing a squirrel round and round a tree.
(No squirrels were harmed...this time.)

A lot of people are about to learn what sensitivity and specificity are and that diagnostic tests are often not anywhere near 100% accurate.
Health experts say they now believe nearly one in three patients who are infected are getting a negative test result.

Our plan for reopening America. This is a national epidemic. When cases peak, and we've seen sustained declines in new infections for 14 days, we can gradually re-open businesses and institutions. We must have key capacities in place, like ample screening. aei.org/research-products/re…
Whoa, this thread. Sensitivity of COVID nasal swab test is apparently 60-70%, which is ok, but...not great. Means 30-40% chance a test comes back negative when they are actually positive.
Replying to @DrLindaMD
60-70% sensitivity, 95% specificity for initial PCR NP swab. Repeat testing increases yield. We have had many retest positive after worsening. If pretest prob is 90% for symptoms/exposure, a negative test still leaves you with 74% likelihood of disease. Trust your instincts
Interesting! Since I'm from Naptown and trying to avoid doing taxes, let's go down this rabbit hole of local history.

"No occasion for panic" Uh, ok. Panic, sure, avoid that. Though extreme caution might have been better advice.
Also, "use Vick's VapoRub at the very first sign of a cold." Probably harmless, yet worthless advice.
