She had lost power in her kitchen . She's back and runnin. Electricians are considered essential but its impacted the trade for sure . Inspectors won't inspect any Job where a home is occupied. So consequently those jobs are halted for now . I've been busy and am fortunate but I'm convinced it will come to a screeching halt very soon . I was getting ready to head up to HD to get some romex, breaker, and outside box for my uninstalled mini split system, but since it’s nice out today, I’m going to wait until early tomorrow morning. It’s nice enough out now for the first mowing of the year! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess its not that surprising considering tons of jobs are considered essential Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I install the wire from end to end then have the professionals install the breaker and the wire connections. I’m just a grunt. I’m not smart enough to do anything more. I did get the drain lines pretty much done today, but again, pvc and downhill is grunt work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDIII Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Stocks rebounded nicely today.. this will be shortlived once everyone defaults and unemployment insurance payouts kick in.

Before he can get in a attic he'll have to get a M90 3M mask off Ebay for $2,000 before starting work . Attics bother the heck out of my sinuses. I have a cheap two filter mask that helps, but it’s still miserable. Kudos to you and all the tradesmen (and women) that do that work all the time. I support Mike Rowe, but give me new construction all the time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaydreb Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 At today’s press conference, both doctors asked anyone who has travelled from NYC metropolitan area in the past week to self-quarantine for 14 days. More than half the new cases in the US are in New York and they are concerned about people spreading it from New York. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymengineer Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Here’s a COVID-19 tracking site that’s been pretty good in terms of matching the MD/DC/VA numbers, and other state numbers: https://coronavirus.1point3acres.com/en The most startling graphic is the one showing the continued exponential growth in deaths, because that figure is less sensitive to testing capacity (the most sick have had the greatest access to tests, other than VIPs apparently). When the dark blue death-per-day line itself starts showing non-linear growth like the last few days, that’s the sign that things are going not well at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymengineer Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 For physics teachers, this is a great opportunity to apply physics to get your circle of influence to understand what’s going on. d vs t graph- derivative is v vs t. A constant v vs t means a linear d vs t graph. A constant non-zero a vs t graph means a linear v vs t and a curved d vs t graph. Once we have to introduce the concept of “jerk,” which will show as a changing a vs t graph, the ripples through the v vs t and d vs t graphs can be complicated to understand. US deaths represented by graph format is currently into “jerk” territory in terms of physics terms. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t know the term jerk in the physics context.
