    Covid-19 Projections, Simple Logistic and Exponential Models2020 · ▲9

    Hello, HN! There have been a lot of COVID-19 from various sites, but a common complaint is that simple things like log-scaling population counts are are infrequently done. So I decided to do it: https://covid19.fernandes.org/ I've aggregated the JHU (per Country) and NYT (select US states) data and plotted them under two models: simple exponential growth and simple logistic growth. The plots are updated as the JHU and NYT data is updated (thanks, GitHub actions!). A big challenge has been the writeup because the exponential model implies horrific things, but the logistic model…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
