That’s not how metabolism works

Yesterday we learned that the improvements we pushed to metadata resulted in a 75% reduction in running time, which is amazing news. We now have enough runway to make all the improvements we want to how the covidcast data is stored. The rest of the day was meetings, notably including a quick orientation for C on what lab manager duties might be like in future. I also worked with A and B to do a database migration for the new version of the hhs hosp data schema.

In theory I could have gone to dinner at 6:15, but instead brain decided to clear up some work details that really could have waited until morning, and I didn’t actually quit until quarter to seven. Dinner, trash, crossword, snuck in an SG-1 episode under the wire, direct to sleep.

Dreamt of guitars, tattered fiber processing equipment (thanks subconscious, I’m aware), messy rooms, running workshops, turning stitch markers into earrings.

Ambassador 1 continues; the author is a much better linguist than biologist.
