Look, I'm sorry, but your analyst is taking crazy pills if he mocks up a system that flunks California and gives NY a gold star.

Strongly disagree. NY has made immense progress. You can argue that it’s from a low baseline, but the reality is that NY is safe now in a way that almost nowhere else in the country is.

@webdevMason, I really don't mean this in a bad way, but imo you've become more abrasive / hostile recently in a way that is probably net-bad for the things you care about(?) Just an outside view I wasn't sure you'd hear elsewhere, if you endorse this feel free to ignore1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
(long time follower, just noting how I've felt recently reading your tweets vs a year or two ago. Again, feel free to ignore. Would have DMed this, but closed so buried thread seems next best)

My tolerance for people's tendency to bring whatever their pet slogan or sound bite is onto my tweets is running close to zero, probably because the volume has become ridiculous as I've gained followers.

I'm not going to sit here and explain the difference between criticizing New York's strategy and criticizing an unfair comparison to California. It's right there in the tweet! I'm generally aiming for an unfollow so I don't have to deal with future fallout.

Hey fair enough. FWIW: “New York is The Best at COVID” is very far from a pet slogan of mine. I just think that the comparison to CA is quite fair and that while you’re right 99/100 times on this subject, this is the time you’re not. That’s all.

A state can't kill its vulnerable twice, and it's going to have GREAT buy-in for otherwise burdensome public policy **after** its banner city's streets have been lined with makeshift morgues. Whatever brownie points you think it ought to get, I call horseshit.

Cowen's "politics ~=who should gain/lose status" seems relevant I agree the media is trying to raise the status of northeast pandemic response, and that the correct response is "lol seriously" (Just also, it's useful to know where outbreaks are growing, mask compliance,etc)

So construct those maps; the data aggregation/description here is incredibly misleading. It's pretty clear that states that weren't hit hard with their pants down early are unable to get good marks from Vox.

Yeah, I haven't even looked at the article, but expect their methodology sucks on priors (Tho do expect the true graphs to show higher compliance w/ mitigation) Imo it's ~impossible for people to separate "these states are currently dangerous" from "these states did a good job"
