    Modest COVID proposal: Every time a techie writes a Medium post modeling the epidemic, they must agree to let a random epidemiologist run their company for a month, as the skillsets are clearly perfectly transferrable.

        May be we can write a medium blog about using deep learning algorithms to increase their user engagement. Oh, wait...

        I only have a private Google sheet with exponential growth factors and a linear fit and I'm still willing to let you have my job for a month .

        How should we think about COVID19 analysis by non-epidemiologists that contradicts the scientific consensus?

        Crick changed lanes several times but his record shows he was smart enough he made just about any lane he got into his. Didn't work for Pauling, though - not everybody can pull it off.

        How about this: if someone makes a model, you instead make your own model and see whose is better? I could teach a good epidemiology modeler the basics of finance for a month and hire them to run financial forecasting at a pretty high level..
