I have been using https://github.com/wcota/covid19br which pulls data from each brazilian state. However, the military government will start to fudge the numbers even further. They are moving numbers from covid-19 to

I have being doing this for a while using Balsamiq Mockups 3. The fact that everything is rendered as a low fidelity mock really helps avoid discussions like "move this 2 pixels to the left" or "maybe this blue should be more

Very hyped author. I read Sapiens and despite very interesting points at the beginning and at the end of the book regarding things nobody can prove or disprove now, the bulk of the book is very week. A long logical juggling to praise a lot

A delusional wishful thinking that a patient, while in pain and in need to care, will be shopping and browsing around to see prices, and that would drive prices down. Even if that was true, it requires that you could predict how much your t
