Because each state is given the power to elect a president, not the voters. Puerto Rico isn’t a state so their voters aren’t represented properly.

I love the timing on all of this.

On US nutritional labels fats, carbs, and proteins are listed in grams, but we generally measure everything in pounds.

When calculating your macro nutrition for weight gain the general recommendation comes out to about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. This is just a coincidence, but makes finding out how much protein you need to gain muscle mass pretty easy if you know how much you weigh and given that all of our labels have that info in grams.

They might be referencing the rough math for daily protein consumption. It works out to about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight for men and half a gram per pound for women.

I know I know. I figured out what I did before I thought of that… which was just now when you said it.

I had just figured out how to fix a bug that broke our in house reminder system. My smug ass put hoho as the commit message for figuring something out that the previous guy couldn’t. Of course it came back to bite me in the ass THIS WEEK when the system broke again in a similar fashion, but I couldn’t remember what I had done.

I think he meant 3*4*5=60 billion dollars. 3 months times 4 weeks times 5 billion a week.

Edit, same thing happened to me. The asterisk is a markdown character for italics. You’ll notice that his 4 is italicized.

From what I recall they do this delayed count thing, so that cases from a month ago count, but more recent cases don’t until they’ve been “confirmed”.

The resulting graph makes it looks like cases are on the decline, always.

Other states just count positive results in real time, or as close as they can.
