When I’m stuck on an analysis and remember wisdom, I turn off every screen and just write.
Without fail, some new insight or way of looking at the data presents itself.
As Nouwen put it, to write is to embark on a journey whose destination we do not know. It is discovery. https://cdn.nostr.build/i/7d3a0a1877278e50149cc9911d2e503c90e6e75d87c87768a18d8a7a967750da.jpg

Nasal swabs are thought best, but if your purpose in testing for #COVID19 is to ensure you’re negative and won’t spread it, then swab more.
I prefer nose, then throat and mouth.
Reason: the virus often starts in the throat before it ‘moves around’ over the course of infection.

Thanks so much! I just dove right in without much thought, but this is great! Also, is there a place to find explanations of feature? For example, what is ‘Broadcast’?
