When I was living and working in those countries, they'd call me Dr. utee94 even though I only had a bachelor's in engineering (BSEE).
They called you a Tito's soaked Shorthorn - not that there's anything wrong with that

I'll have you know they did NOT refer tome as Tito's soaked.

'Cause when I'm in those countries, I pretty much stick to the local wine.  Or local beer, in Germany.

I may have mentioned this, but STEM back in my Illinois area is now referred to as STEAM.

The "A" is for arts.

One of those is NOT like the other, but the arts faculty felt inferior and demanded they be included.

I shit you not. And it's bulljive.
What in the ???

I do agree that even STEM degrees should include some more diverse courses, including literature, social science, etc.

But adding it as an equal?  That would be like putting Rutgers in the B1G.

PA has 14,000,000 people vs Texas 29,000,000

There are only 12 states with a lower cases per 1M pop then Texas

Penn has almost 3 times as many cases per 1M pop as Texas

We have increased out testing and have twice as many tests then PA

you need to worry about stuff that is much more important then how Texas is doing cause Texas is doing just fine


I'm aware that TX has twice the population, which is why I am looking at the growth rate.

I'm also looking at ACTIVE cases.  PA got hit hard early, being so close to NJ and NY, but things are MUCH better now.  

I expect Texas to more than double PA in active cases in about 7 days.

The numbers really are trending in a way that makes me nervous.

Both Texas and Penn have about 22,000 active cases so for Texas do do this in 7 days is not possible and wont happen
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

active cases really is not the important stat hospitalization and deaths is

How does Texas and Penn compare in those stats

deaths: Texas 1768 and Penn 5768

Hospitalizations Texas 1550 and Penn 1302

Texas again has twice the population of Penn

With current trends, I expect TX to be adding 1,500 to 2000 or so per day, while PA is losing about 500 per day.

OK well thats a completely different statement then doubling in 7 days

again it doesnt matter to me how many positive cases we have as long as our death rate and hospitalization rate remains at the current levels

did you know that scientists are now coming to the conclusion that shutting down has little affect on the number of cases occurring

it should be interesting to see just how the Philadelphia area does in case count in the coming weeks with the riots happening there

It will be interesting to see how big a spike results from all the lack of social distancing over the past several days.

That is, if Covid-19 is still the major subject on our minds.

AZ opened back up in the middle of May.  And now it's worse than anytime before.  900+ new cases TODAY, and 40 deaths.  Who could have predicted such a thing!?!

Georgia remains flat on every metric, perhaps a very slight down trend on hospitalizations.

https://www.ajc.com/news/coronavirus-georgia-covid-dashboard/jvoLBozRtBSVSNQDDAuZxH/

I notice a lot of folks on SM cherry pick data to support whatever they want to believe in the first place, and then claim X is more important than Y, when they would claim the reverse if it comported with their world view.

I do expect a detectable upsurge due to protests in a week or so.  Even ten people in a thousand infected would be spreading this thing which would then spread further the next day ...
