Because risk assessment is often way more complex than a couple of flat metrics? Of course, flat and easily understandable (by laypeople) metrics are good for scoring points and making people believe they’re in the know, but it’s not at all clear to me that 7/7 over a bunch of flat metrics with arbitrary thresholds indicates “safe for reopening”.
Again, to be clear, I’m personally on the caution side, not the reopening side.

- jwilber 6y agoHow you can compare a dashboard that was so blatantly false it warranted a public-apology to a dashboard that DOES show sources And presents the info straightforward is beyond me. If your point is about phases, maybe re-word your initial comment to make that clear.
- dang 6y agoI understand the frustration of advocating a contrarian view on HN, but please don't do rage-deletes. You're depriving readers who want to know what you had to say. Some of those would have been genuinely interested, despite the downvotes from others. Anyone who wants to read a downvoted comment, btw, can do so more easily by clicking on its timestamp. That should take you to a page where it's more readable—assuming of course that there is content left to read.
