Who wants a shiny new sticker on the door of your business?! Thanks Clay!Quote:
The program would ask that a business take a pledge to follow certain guidance from public health officials on distancing and safe operations. They would also be asked to follow a color-coded guide the county released this week that deems which activities are safe based on the risk-level of community spread.
Those businesses that participate will be able to show off a Stay Safe Business insignia in their windows

This was a model done by someone "dragging the corner" on an Excel spreadsheet. Said it at the time and will say it again.
Absolutely atrocious.
He's been dug in on this for months and will never admit the projections were/are wrong. Today had the lowest number of new cases since easing restrictions two weeks ago...however somehow it takes more than 2 weeks to begin to see the impact:MGS said:
If a CEO of a public-traded company had made major decisions that caused substantial financial losses based on projections that were off by several orders of magnitude, would he still have a job?

Three reasons he's doing this.
1) he's being compensated
2) he's an idiot
3) his ego is so big he can't admit he was wrong

Weren't those the numbers from the Silicon Valley model that popped up and got quickly discredited like a day after Dallas Co. handed them out at a press conference?

Imagine being a small time data scientist. You build a model you think is great, but it's not really intended for mass consumption and maybe you don't get it peer reviewed like you usually do.
10 countries use it as gospel and it destroys trillions in economic value.
Oops.
