In which Stacy talks with a friend

I worked on cleaning up the CCC scans. The photoshop macro used initially was a bit agressive and whitened some of the images too much, so manual manipulation was needed.

We also updated the archives server and got word back on an arclight bug we’d encountered. Someone else knew what caused it and was pushing up a bugfix. That’s the best kind of bugfix.

In my personal life, I talked with Andrew on video chat. It was a good talk. I like Andrew.

I ordered rice from an online Asian grocery store a week or so ago. I haven’t gotten a shipping notification yet, but they did charge my credit card. I hope that means they silently shipped. Rice is scarce around here, especially rice that isn’t long grain (my household has preferences, ok?).

My purple hair dye kit arrived. It’s in the isolation box until Friday, then purple hair for me!

I’m also waiting on fabric, cord locks, and pipe cleaners. 3/4 of those items havent shipped.

Math

I did some sad math today. 611 Danbury residents have tested positive for COVID-19 as of today, according to the mayor. There are about 85,000 residents of Danbury. Only severe cases get tested nowadays. If it takes 10 days after infection before a case is “severe” and only 14% of cases get that bad, then 5% of Danbury was infected 10 days ago. More have certainly been infected since.

Fairfield County has 3719 cases. Danbury has 611 (570 tested by in-state labs, then 41 test out-of-state).
