I got sick of all the garbage metrics out there and graphs just designed to make people panic. Here's the alpha version of my graphs. I've only got a few, but I'm building it out and expanding. Pull requests welcome:

fucking Javascript (and Java) date object .. why the fuck do months start at 0?

working with the raw John Hopkins CSV data is fucking terrible. This data set is terrible inconsistent.

So I finally setup wireguard. I've got links from home to my dedicated and to my aws/ec2. It really was relatively easy to setup compared to OpenVPN .. although I wonder if that's just because I've been using OpenVPN so long that I know what to look for in routes/iptables when things aren't working.

I did everything manually. I'm only using a subset of my ansible roles because you can't just destroy and bring up a dedicated like a VM.

I still need to test my docker isolation networks.

I wish my dedicated server had immediate KVM access. Their KVM-over-IP has limited licenses, you have to put in a request and wait for an opening.

Also .. I'm not sure if I trust that browser. Like ... how do I know it's had its security updates?

There is an atom extension that puts an actual browser in your IDE .. which is running ... in ... a .... browser ...

This phrase is in the Zeitgeist for many English speaking countries: "social distancing." Are the media using a single phrase for this in your language and, if so, what is it?

The mayor just closed all parks, the lakefront and the 606 trail. I was looking forward to cycling as it was one of the few things I could do outside alone. Turns out in a city of 3 million, everyone had that idea.

I understand the seriousness of the situation. Italy is losing 600/day ... but I do find it interesting that states have essentially taken away peoples' right to assemble.

I thought we were doing good staying apart when in the parks when I was out. Goodbye daily walks
