I'm hoping it's just bad tests in the first place.

Edit: Adding my website for tracking coronavirus cases over time in USA state and counties. Original Show HN here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22778152

My friend and I wanted to contribute and help everyone to better understand the outbreak solely in the US so we built a website that tracks US covid-19 cases on a state/county level (where the data is available) and present their temporal evolution (time series). I was in charge of the front-end while my friend did data aggregation and manipulation. We are aware that there are already a lot of trackers out there but this one is US specific and tracks the cases in greater spatial and temporal detail, while still keeping it clean and simple (or so we hope). NY times seems to be way ahead of the curve in reporting and data visualization of covid-19 cases around the world but as far as I know (unless it changed) they are behind a paywall after a certain amount of website visits.

This just went live after a few days of almost not-stop work. It can certainly be improved and we would like to hear back from you with all of your suggestions and criticism. We wanted to make it public as soon as possible so we can start iterating and improving.

I know that the map is a little bit sluggish, this is probably because I am loading a ton of polygons which define the borders of every single county. I need a little break from this but I will try to improve it when I get a chance.

The data is collected by NY Times and is freely available for public use (attribution at the bottom of our website).

Our ToDo list: Plot the rate of change of cases per each location available Produce a heatmap which shows the amount of infected/per population number

Libraries/frameworks used: jQuery, plotly.js, leaflet.js, select2

You couldn't be more right. Just wait for the news from kirkland hospital that should be coming out today

Viruses might as well be alien nanobots created to spread and "engineer" life around the universe.

How do you distinguish these thoughts from the intrusive ones?

I needed to learn Django a few years back and was aware that the play store was actually an awful place for discovering high quality games that were worth my time and that's how this project came to be. It didn't receive much love on reddit and it never took off. Inspired by a similar project posted here a couple of days ago that I just saw (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22063744) I decided to show my project as well and got some feedback.

I made something similar a few years ago although for Android only.

Do you by any chance have instructions on how to set this up locally (tensorflow and cuda)? Or could you recommend some material I could look to figure this out? Thank you and amazing work by the way!

I'm a programmer and used to spend my free time staring at a computer screen (whether working on personal projects, building websites and video games or playing video games) but then I realized this was taking a toll on my social life and both physical and mental health. Now I try to do something completely unrelated to coding (I still enjoy coding and do it occasionally but not nearly as much as before), for example cooking or fixing things or doing any work that is tangible. I play sports and go to the gym. It helps a lot with confidence and your dopamine levels which then motivates you to be more successful at other options things, like coding, or dating or just meeting new people.

In case people are interested in projects I've built, in the early beginning of learning full stack I was over ambitious and wanted to build a website that would help discover quality mobile games. The website is: https://www.playworthy.io/ But the idea never took off. The website is still live but I rarely maintain it because the amount of traffic it gets.
