What does an extra ~2-2.5 eACH cost for a classroom? This year it was $30 for air filters and $3 in⚡️, for a whopping $1.43 per kid per year!!! Took 7 hours to do 23 rooms. This ain't rocket science.
Not a paid endorsement, no connection to brand but 0/23 failures in 3 years🤷‍♀️

So we know ventilation helps to reduce the risk of contracting #SARSCoV2, but why is this? 📝

@ukhadds explains the fundamental processes that drive the loss of viral infectivity in the aerosol phase and why opening a window might come in handy this winter. 🌬️

@masknerd Glad you are having a great trip! What is GUV? I'm not familiar with the term.

[Terri Yu @terrimyu]

@masknerd Which mask did you pick? It looks like a KF94?

[Terri Yu @terrimyu]

@masknerd Thank you so much for your hard work. You relieved a lot of my anxiety and I was able to successfully reintegrate into the outside world with the confidence of good masks.

NEW PROJECT: How (not) to get hit by a self-driving car 🚗⚠️💥

A street-based game that challenges visitors to avoid being detected by an AI-powered camera. Can you fool the AI and reach the goal?

Collab with @tomokihara as part of @wshed @PlayableCity

Here our thoughts about where we think 222nm Far-UV is at right now, after having attended #ICFUST2023 with the @TheOSLUVProject. That was a crazy busy week, and just finally getting caught up now. Totally worth it as it was great to see first hand what is happening in the space.

[Terri Yu @terrimyu]

@masknerd Thanks for that summary, Aaron. Hope we will see more progress in implementing non masking solutions to air quality. But until then... Any thoughts about masking for wildfire smoke, given the current news?

It wasn't until I'd *taught* algorithms a few times that I finally understood why sorting is in the CS curriculum. Unfortunately, most curricula don't explain this!

It is NOT because sorting is an important algorithm to learn to implement...

[The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) @SickKidsNews]

Many people wear masks to help reduce virus transmission, but how can we improve mask fit for children? Children 4 to 17 years old can join an #SKResearch study comparing the performance & comfort of various masks for children. Email [email protected] to learn more.

@masknerd Have a great trip. Looking forward to your tweets.

Thanks to @haxor for inviting me on his 'Worst practices' series. Watch me show off how poorly I use vi! 😄https://t.co/vh7Q52BqYe

@OpenAeros What is eACH?

[Terri Yu @terrimyu]

@masknerd Awesome! What respirators are all the people in the photo wearing? I only recognize the V-flex.

[OpenAeros @OpenAeros]

At @OpenAeros we don't believe in COVID infections as the cost of doing business. We have the tools, and with our mitigation measures our estimates put an in-office risk of infection at 1:90,000 odds. That's one infection every 246 years! Let's break down how we did this🧵

What is @b0rk's worst practice in software development? "Not reading the documentation" she says — watch here: https://t.co/uAYxIr6NGp

[Terri Yu @terrimyu]

@masknerd 😥I feel your pain. Thank you for all your hard work to help me and others find respirators that work for them.

[Terri Yu @terrimyu]

@yesallcrops @AislingReverdie Like a few others suggested, 3M Aura 9210+ or 9211+ with the white braided straps might be more comfortable, especially if you have long hair. Also, Vitacore CAN99 is a N95 respirator which fits smaller than the 3M Aura and you might be able to use it without stapling.
