@ploeh If I recall it correctly i first mentioned it in a blog post in 2013. But since then it has evolved a bit and has been described several times. Check out this: https://t.co/Sk9tMssRX9 or https://t.co/SSmEOcToix. Or this for a bigger context: https://t.co/SxkkCKOKLk

Ich glaube, das mit der Demokratie ist nicht so einfach, wie wir denken. Auch zur Demokratie gibt es ein Narrativ, wie man heute so schön sagt. Vllt leben wir doch nicht in einer der bestmöglichen?

War ne schöne Sitzung - leider zu kurz. So much to discuss, so little time 😉 Also: Ein andermal mehr davon. Wir haben erst die Hälfte vom "Vorhersageuniversum" besprochen.

@cyetain If there's one effect of SARS-CoV-2 infections that's sticking out to me it's how it highlights unhealthy lifestyles. COVID-19 is a disease matching the state of the world. It attacks where exploitation is rampant, personal as well as societal. Masks will not help to cover that.

[Ralf Westphal @ralfw]

@cyetain Sure. But health is only one of many values to be balanced to lead a - well - healthy life. And plausibility is no guarantee for truth. And good will is no guarantee for good outcomes. And the primary way to avoid sickness is... a healthy lifestyle for a good immune system.

[Ralf Westphal @ralfw]

@cyetain I don't want to convince anybody to wear a mask. I just wanted to say that any communication should strive to be precise. There's a lot fuzzy, misleading, sweeping talking going on these days.

[Ralf Westphal @ralfw]

@cyetain Sorry, in my world I'm only sick if I suffer from some symptom. That's my naive definition of "to be sick". (Sure, that's not what some people would like to tell me. But I'm kinda old fashioned in this regard.)

There still might be a deficit in my body - but I'm not sick (yet).

[Ralf Westphal @ralfw]

@cyetain Found this: https://t.co/1jVuU7RDCb Still asymptomatic means "not sick", i.e. no COVID-19. Let's be precise.

If asymptomatic spread is possible then a much higher number of infected should exist - which leads to reduction of COVID-19 and COVID-19 death *rates*.

[Ralf Westphal @ralfw]

@cyetain The problem with such simplistic depictions starts with the factual mistake that there could be „asymptomatic COVID-19 carriers“. COVID-19 is a disease. You have it if and only if you show symptoms. However you can be an asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 carrier.

@AnnetteCreft Ein Wert, der nicht fähig oder bereit ist, für sich einzustehen, wird einem aggressiveren Wert immer früher oder später unterliegen.

Wenn "gut" bedeutet, sich nicht zu verteidigen, dann ist "gut" verdammt unterzugehen.

@TobiasSchnellHH Worauf wartest du noch? Stimme mit deinen Füßen ab und verlasse das Land mit deinem Business. Woanders ist man freundlicher zu Selbstständigen.

[Ralf Westphal @ralfw]

@Pelshoff TDD's claim is too big and it's activity focused, not problem oriented😯 Many devs deem it not realistic for the problem at hand. Hence it's impractical for them beyond typical show case scenarios like FizzBuzz.

@fortelabs @Mappletons Enjoy! :-) https://t.co/OwBUOHcXGE

@Mappletons I envy you for your legible writing🙄😯Which tool(s) are you using for these illustrations? Which brush/pen? Any suggestions for how to practice such legible hand writing? Pleeeease!😉

Corona virus: cui bono? Poor German car manufacturers! They understand: a car is no longer about freedom, but about protection! Not only SUVs, but also small cars. Protection from infection! Mobile quarantine vehicles (MQV)! Their slogan: Drive today to keep the doctor away!
