New explorable on Friday!
🕑 Added 2020-04-29 00:18:34 +0000 UTCBefore the sneak peek, 2 quick things:
1. If you need to lower/cancel your pledge in this hard time, I completely understand. Seriously, take care of you first! I'm financially safe, thanks to all your past support π
2. Two months ago I said I'd be traveling on vacation in April, thus I would pause the Patreon. Obviously, I've not been traveling, nor on vacation. April's pledge will still be charged at the end of the month, just a heads up!
. . .
Mark your calendars! My new explorable explanation on COVID-19 (in collaboration with epidemiologist Marcel SalathΓ©) is launching on...
π FRIDAY, MAY 1ST @ NOON EASTERN TIME! π
(And if you got the $5/mo tier, you'll get 24-hour early access! First time I'm using Patreon's "early access" feature, let's hope I don't mess it up)
It's the most "deep dive" explorable I've done since The Evolution of Trust, explaining:
- π¬ Epidemiology 101 (R & R0, SEIR Model),
- π· The proposed interventions (intermittent lockdown, testing & tracing, masks)
- π± And what humanity can still do, even in the worst-case scenarios (no lasting immunity, no safe vaccine?!)
...in 30 minutes, with playable simulations of course.
Sneak peek of some (non-playable) diagrams:
I have unfortunately been crunching on this, so after the launch I'll say "screw it I did my civic duty", won't do any more COVID-19 explainers, and I'll take a month-long nap. Then I might make a webcam toy that turns you into your fursona. Screw it, I did my civic duty.
See y'all in a few days!
ππ·π,

I will share this far and wide. Should take an actual vacation and still collect monthly Patreon money. Because you are worth it.
