IronYThe only reason the gov is not asking everyone to go outside with masks on, is because there are no masks, and there are so little masks, they would rather you donate them to hospitals and risk infection yourself00:21

Albrightmefistofeles: Are you familiar with the term "headless browser?" It's basically a web browser which doesn't show a GUI but renders the page only in memory and lets you interact with it programmatically.00:45
AlbrightThere are a few of them you'll find if you search the term but I'm not familiar enough with them to recommend one. I think the standard version of Firefox supports it but I'm not sure how you'd "connect" with it to do it.00:46

LjLTimvde, honestly it's sad to think of people fined for what should be their most basic freedoms00:56

AlbrightGood politicians never let a crisis go to waste.00:57
TimvdeBut honestly, we really need to just not mess around for now00:57
TimvdeThey don't _want_ to fine people, but people just don't want to listen either00:57
LjLTimvde, there've been police fining people for some things that are really allowed, though (and surely also the opposite)00:59
LjLTimvde, i won't really start thinking most police are sensible people filled with common sense when i never thought it before :P00:59
TimvdeLjL: Yea, that's of course not great01:00
TimvdeAnd really, communication could've been a lot better01:00
unl0ckd<LjL "opinions on these numbers? https"> The director of data science where I work passed this out as a reference. I trust her to know the best source(s) for information, so I've been referencing this one almost exclusively. The data seems to lag a couple of days behind, but seems to be accurate from what I can tell...01:00
oribamefistofeles: You could parse it with python directly... its json inside the webpage01:01
oribabut it's ugly01:01
oribasome regexp stuff I think01:01
LjLunl0ckd, do you know what the model's assumptions are? some kind of complete lockdown i figure01:02
LjLTimvde, communication has been thoroughly bad from all the institutions i know of01:02
unl0ckdLjL: I don't, unfortunately. I think the assumption is a shelter-in-place. The text "assume the continuation of strong social distancing measures and other protective measures." isn't too clear. My hope is that the assumption is based on the weak guidance we've been given in the states vs the more stringent guidance provided by China. 01:04
LjLunl0ckd, although the data are sort of optimistic for me... a peak of 2000ish deaths a day, grim as they seem, that's about twice the amount of deaths italy has now per day. and that's italy, 1/6 the amount of people as the US01:06

LjLberndj, i think it varies across the country. i have no real perception of it. when i went outside for a bit because i was just exploding inside, i saw some people, but very few compared to what you'd normally see, and they were nearly all wearing masks and walking swiftly03:22
berndjno groups?03:22
LjLon the other hand, there are these rumors in the south some... well, criminals, really, are planning to revolt or something03:22
LjLberndj, no, but i didn't venture into places where i might expect to see them, like the park03:23
LjLas a matter of fact just as i was heading towards the nearest park i saw an army truck come out of it03:23
LjLi thought it prudent to go somewhere else03:23
LjLbut there was a "group", of 4-5 people03:23
LjLthose were the ones queuing in front of the small supermarket near home03:23
LjLdirectly in front, so since they were keeping distance, one of them was actually on the street03:24
LjLwhich seems sort of okay since there are basically no cars03:24
LjLexcept the few there are go rather fast03:24
LjLanyhow, i dodged them all by going even further in the middle of the street03:24
berndjwe got our first confirmed case in a slum today03:24
LjLbut point is: there are still groups, queuing in front of supermarkets, and i think that's concerning03:24
LjLpossibly unavoidable, but concerning03:24
berndjhow are they queueing? bunched up or leaving an adequate space between people?03:25
LjLno as i said they were "keeping distane"03:25
LjLadequate, i don't know03:25
LjLbut at least that meter that government mandates03:25
LjLprobably more in that case03:25
LjLbut 4-5 is a thing03:25
berndji wouldn't feel comfortable with just 1 meter03:26
LjLin front of *big* supermarkets there can be 4-5... hundred?03:26
LjLberndj, me neither, but for some reason that's what the law says03:26
LjLi suspect most people will keep somewhat further away if feasible03:26
LjLbut i think when you have long rows of people waiting to get into a supermarket, you will have sustained transmission, no matter where you tell them to stand03:27
LjLnevermind the fact that the insides of the supermarket is also transmission galore, even with few people inside03:27
berndjyeah, i think your idea of military-style standard rations is a reasonable one03:27
LjLi don't say it lightly03:28
LjLi am a very picky eater, i'd hate it03:28
LjLi just don't think it can work this way03:28

berndj"i'll just go to the shop for a bottle of milk and some bread"03:29
LjLwell, i don't know if *all* of Wuhan went with standard rations eventually, but03:29
LjLeither that, or they could go to the supermarket every two weeks, alone, maximum two hours outside03:29
LjLnow honestly i have no idea how i'd take home enough food for two weeks for me *and* my parents03:29
LjLso i'd rather the standard ration methinks03:30
berndjdo italians have to register with the government where they live like germans have to do the "anmelden" thing?03:30
LjLnot sure if it's the same as germany, but yes, residence03:30
LjLin theory we even have to notify police if people just sleep over one night03:31
berndjok so in theory the government knows how many people live in every residence03:31
LjLwhich is ridiculous, nobody does it, it comes from anti-terrorism laws from the 70s03:31
LjLbut it became an issue again with airbnbs03:31
LjLyes, they should03:31
berndjwe have the problem here, i think, that the people living in the slums live hand to mouth, they had no means to stock up on toilet paper and whatever else we need03:32
berndjso they basically "have to" go to the shop every day03:32
LjLanyway, the supermarket that used to have 15-day windows to order online, and which never had slots unless you tried right after midnight repeatedly, has now been "stuck" on the same day as the final day of the window for several days03:32
LjLso i suspect they won't deliver anymore03:32

sYN4P515umm what is !bang ?04:25
sYN4P515not a command in my bot04:26
ubLIXboth your bot and CovBot respond to !help, i believe. we need to do something about that04:26
ubLIXthe only other thing i can think of right now is that one or both of them gives a multi-line output for !help. if that could be reduced to one line, the scroll would be cleaner04:28
DocScrutinizer05you can't have two bots using same attention char04:28

sYN4P515ubLIX possibly i can change the ouput of !help to be delivered via pm or channel private message (or whatever its called)04:29

twomoona speedier option could sprout up04:40
LjLwell if you're in the streets on a vehicle, i think there are decent chances to be pulled over by police04:40
LjLand if that happens, you need to have a letter from your employer04:40
LjLand if you're employed in the black market, you don't have that04:41
LjLalthough i suppose you could always try to drive faster than the cops04:41
LjLand then get sentenced to death for unlawful groceries delivery04:41
LjLoh wait i think i'm a few steps ahead here04:41
tinwhiskersI hope people stop acting like asses and hoarding so that everyone can get what they need from the supermarket. We don't need a black market04:42
LjLtinwhiskers, that is not the issue04:42
LjLit's that the supermarket's delivery system really wasn't made to cope with this demand04:42
LjLand on the other hand, *going* to the supermarket means very long queues outside04:42
twomoonhave you seen any military patrols along your road?04:42
AimHerePartly that, and partly the demand is greater even without hoarding04:42
LjLnot because anyone is hoarding, just because they don't let more than small groups of people inside04:42
AimHereFolks need to prepare for a couple of weeks extra food AND they're not eating out so much04:43
AimHereSo they need to buy more04:43
LjLtwomoon, no, but i've seen a military truck come out of the nearest park04:43
tinwhiskersif people go once a week and quickly go around getting a week worth of supplies it woul dbe a lot better than going every day or so like a lot of people seem to do04:43
LjLparks are supposed to be closed but that one can't fully be closed04:43
LjLtinwhiskers, given the length of the queues, i think they would be a little masochistic to go every day04:44
LjLhowever...04:44
LjLwe always bought a *lot* of groceries and went by car, or we wouldn't really have been able to take them home04:44
LjLnow you aren't even allowed to go inside the supermarket with other people, it has to be one person04:44
tinwhiskershrm. ok04:44
LjLmy idea on the matter hasn't changed, they should close supermarkets and convert it all to deliveries, with state aid to any necessary extent04:46
tinwhiskersas an asside, we're in our first week of lockdown. I just got back from town (had to see the doctor). There was basically nobody at the shops, but the lockdown hasn't been going for long.04:46
tinwhiskersLjL: they can do both04:46
LjLi'm sure our military people could do other things that just driving circles in a patrol04:46
tinwhiskersyeah, the military should be able to help04:46

LjLtinwhiskers, i think they *shouldn't* do both, i think people physically going to the supermarkets and queuing is the main remaining contagion vector, together with the unavoidable, i.e. hospitals, and maybe i'll grant them what they talk about a lot lately, i.e. infections passed within a household (but i don't think that can really be avoided even if they change from having people self-isolate to isolating them in hotels etc, due to the 04:48

DocScrutinizer05how would delivery service differ any way from people going by themselves for shopping? regarding the infection spread potential04:54
tinwhiskersyeah. That's what they did in Wuhan04:54
tinwhiskersdelivery guy would put the package down, then the recipient would come over and pick it up.04:55
DocScrutinizer05so?04:55
tinwhiskersso they never got near each other04:56
AimHereMeans the delivery guy doesn't get it from customers, so the customers are less likely to get it from delivery guy04:56
DocScrutinizer05you need immune delivery guys then, and basically a significant fraction of whole population has to do just delivery04:56
LjLDocScrutinizer05, there aren't people queuing in what are basically large gathering, however safely distanced, for a start04:56
AimHereWell delivery guys won't be immune, but you can instruct them in the procedures to minimise risk04:56
tinwhiskersimmune would be good, but you don't *need* that04:57
DocScrutinizer05hmm, the delivery guys would, no?04:57
LjLand then even if you're inside in only small groups, it's still an enclosed space, with aircon, and i feel pretty positive that sort of airborne transmission can happen04:57
LjLplus everyone will typically be touching every single piece of packaging to look at the expiry date04:57
AimHereGoing to a central location for shopping is much riskier. Lots of people in one place, lots of surfaces to touch. Virus can go from anyone to anyone04:57
DocScrutinizer05>>you can instruct them in the procedures to minimise risk<< that's exactly what you should do for whole population04:57
tinwhiskersyeah, like people can do anything they are told04:57
tinwhiskers(collectively)04:58
DocScrutinizer05that's the problem, but you get exactly same problem with any delivering service04:58
AimHereNo, you get a different problem04:58
DocScrutinizer05even military04:58
tinwhiskersdeliveries are clearly a better option if they are possible on the scale required04:58
LjLif we get food delivered, we can disinfect the packaging04:58
AimHereWith a delivery, the main transmission is from the delivery guy to the customer04:58
LjLif we have to go get our own food, we are very exposed *even if* we disinfect the packaging04:59
AimHereThe customer can disinfect their packaging, the delivery guy doesn't have to go too near the customer, it's rather controlled04:59
IronYthey just leave it on the porch for most things now here04:59
AimHereWith a central shopping location, you have lots of people touching lots of surfaces and possibly going close to other people04:59
IronYI had a ups lady yell at me through the window she signed my package for me04:59
IronYI thanked her for her service04:59
IronYit was a nice moment lol04:59
tinwhiskersnice05:00
AimHereAlso, things like self-service checkouts are a nasty surface for virus transmission05:00
IronYAimHere: I pot on gardening gloves on my 5 min trip out today05:01
AimHereEverybody goes through and touches the same plastic screens and credit card devices. If the screens are capacitive, it's worse, since gloves don't work05:01
IronYif only to remind me not to touch my face05:01
LjLAimHere, in Wuhan buildings, they have figured out grotesque tissue or toothpick arrangements to push elevator buttons without contaminating/getting contaminated05:02
IronYLjL: I seen that05:02
LjLalthough personally i have a vague suspicion that the air in the elevator is the main reason why they have figured out elevators are a huge issue05:03
IronYthe tooth pick thing is clever 05:03
LjLmore than the buttons05:03
IronYthey are all in n95 masks though05:03
IronYbecause thats where they all went05:03
LjLprobably not if they discard them at the required pace05:03

tinwhiskersThere are no gloves or face masks available here. I just use hand sanitiser before getting into the car and treat the boot as a contaminated zone, then when I get home I put everything into a box for 4-5 days, sanitise myself again, go inside, wash up and change clothes. 05:04

tinwhiskerswe also have an issue here where the vegetables are contaminated by a local slug and you can catch meningitis. The recommended thing to do is to wash you vegetables in chlorine bleach, so this kills two birds with one stone. 05:09
IronYI never got a response05:09
IronYtinwhiskers: I had meningitis when I was 8 (viral), can confirm, not a good time05:10
tinwhiskersyou wash the bleach off. the tiny traces remaining are nothing to be concerned about. You get more chlorine going for a swim by a country mile.05:10

DocScrutinizer05sure, small traces of bleach are harmless, but still it's not generally the method of choice unless you got other reasons too for using it05:11
ubLIXBruntLIVE: go for a mile long walk in the city, then go for a mile long walk in the countryside; the latter will feel much longer05:11
IronYalso bleach is probably one of those resources that will be hard to get, all I am saying is, you wanna have it when you need it and not use it when you dont want to use it05:11

MjrTom[m]ryouma: it's a bit difficult for zinc to get into cells through the cell wall. Zinc just randomly in your body doesn't do much. When it's actually inside a cell, it can interfere with rna virus polymerase and as such inhibit virus replication. A zinc ionophore is a type of molecule that opens a channel through the cell wall permitting zinc to enter. Quercetin is a bioflavonoid found in various foods that has been shown to be a zinc ionophore09:34

Rockwoodhows?12:04
AimHereRockwood, natural selection. All living things exist primarily to make copies of themselves12:05
AimHereSometimes the copies are imperfect and not quite the same as the previous copies. That's called mutation12:05
AimHereUsually these imperfect copies are worse at making copies of themselves than the originals, and so they die out12:06

PiciYou'd really need to be a news agency to get that sort of video.  I work for a hospital and theres no way that they're going to let some schmo take video in their ER.  A news crew with an agreement to blur out faces would be the only way you'd do this.. and people are just too busy to do that crap now. 17:06
LjLPici, hey. i've got to say we've tossed a lot of what used to be very basic legal principles aside... and now privacy is being very much tossed aside, too, with widespread phone tracking to see if people are violating lockdowns. i suppose doing some journalism to show what's actually going on inside hospital isn't the part of that i am the most uncomfortable with17:06
danielp3344ThomCat: blurring faces sounds like a decent compromise17:06
mefistofelesbut still, posting random videos about them without actual sources of context (date, what hospital, what part of the hospital, etc.) is probably a worse idea17:06

PiciLjL: I've been worried for you as well.  I hope we all end up fine (or at least back to our normals) at the end of all this. 17:10
mefistofelesjust like google access your location when you have location services disabled, your carrier access yours even when you have your airplone mode enabled17:10
LjLmefistofeles, how does that technically happen? a phone in airplane mode lasts much longer battery-wise, which i thought was a decent indication the modem was actually off17:10
mefistofelesLjL: it depends, the most common way is storing the data locally in some file and then send it whenever is possible17:11
mefistofelesbut you can just also lower the rate of communication17:11
LjLPici, i try not to think too much of the "afterwards" because i have a feeling it won't really be back to what we considered normal :( but we'll see... hopefully17:11

IronYbn_mobile: no disagreement there!18:21
IronYLjL: Fair enough!18:22
bn_mobilewoah, now seeing triple-posting18:22
aradeshdeath toll for the last 4 days in the UK have been: 181, 260, 209, 180. the last three days make it look like it's going down, but if 260 was just coincidentally higher than normal, it could be that this is a bit of an illusion18:22
LjLthere have been 6550 people reported to police just yesterday for violating quarantine, some of which were positive18:23
IronYaradesh: in canada, ontario we define recovered by a 14 day time period, no tests even required18:23
aradeshbut it's good that we haven't doubled how much we're going up each day over 4 days18:23
IronYaradesh: so I can assure u, you will never see reliable data from us on that metric18:23
TimvdeLjL: "recoveries" is sort of relevant for us, because afaik we only test/count people that get into hospital18:23

aradeshLjL: your feeling that germany's fatality rate is too good to be true might be proving itself to be right. on the 19th of march it was only 0.29% but since then it's crept up to 0.86%. i guess this could be related to how many tests germany are doing, and how it takes a while (perhaps as much as a month) from contraction, to dying18:52
aradeshwith germany's very high testing rate, it could easily be that a lto of the people they're testing have only had it for a few days18:53
LjLaradesh, well that would still be good news if it's the correct interpretation18:55
LjLthe more people already have it without us knowing, the more people are immune18:55
LjLalthough, also, the more people can be infected18:55

tinwhiskerssh4d0wme[m]: I don't know what you mean, but there's always going to be cases where people die from causes other than the virus and also happen to have the virus (e.g. getting hit by a bus).
