People who were raised bilingual: How does your brain separate the languages? Is there some sort of mental "dividing line," does it take special effort to avoid mixing the languages together, or does it work some entirely different way in your mind?

Theres a handful of 2020 candidates who challenge oligarchy. There is a larger group of 2020 candidates who accept oligarchy & merely seek compromise with it. There will be an effort to distract from this distinction, but it’s one of the biggest dividing lines in the Dem primary. twitter.com/davidsirota/s…

Mad Props to ODOT for laying down painted lines dividing the two lanes of road between the 105 Delta off ramp and the end of the Jefferson Street bridge.

Eugene drivers were having a lot of difficulty navigating an unpainted two lane road and I almost got side swiped a few times.

One reason why 1024 is the dividing line between bytes and kilobytes is because 2 is the 10th root of 1024, so that explains why a number higher than 1,000 was chosen.

As RT's, you guys are going to be on the frontline for what we are about to face. Going forwards, the dividing line in your life will be before Covid-19 and after

Ill be honest, I'm extremely worried about this. My dad is 65 and is a primary care physician ans runs a hospital, my aunt and first cousin are also physicians and work at hospitals. My mom is 64 and has COPD. My sister in law is a nurse.

Im sure healthcare worker are just now starting to realize the magnitude of what we are about to go through, but if not, this thread is a heads up so that you can prepare yourself mentally for whats about to happen.

" think most people aren’t aware of the risk of systemic healthcare failure due to #COVID19 because they simply haven’t run the numbers yet. Let’s talk math. 1/n Let’s conservatively assume that there are 2,000 current cases in the US today, March 6th. This is about 8x the number of confirmed (lab-diagnosed) cases. We know there is substantial under-Dx due to lack of test kits; I’ll address implications later of under-/over-estimate. 2/n We can expect that we’ll continue to see a doubling of cases every 6 days (this is a typical doubling time across several epidemiological studies). Here I mean actual cases. Confirmed cases may appear to rise faster in the short term due to new test kit rollouts. 3/n We’re looking at about 1M US cases by the end of April, 2M by ~May 5, 4M by ~May 11, and so on. Exponentials are hard to grasp, but this is how they go. 4/n As the healthcare system begins to saturate under this case load, it will become increasingly hard to detect, track, and contain new transmission chains. In absence of extreme interventions, this likely won’t slow significantly until hitting >>1% of susceptible population. 5/n What does a case load of this size mean for healthcare system? We’ll examine just two factors β€” hospital beds and masks β€” among many, many other things that will be impacted. 6/n The US has about 2.8 hospital beds per 1000 people. With a population of 330M, this is ~1M beds. At any given time, 65% of those beds are already occupied. That leaves about 330k beds available nationwide (perhaps a bit fewer this time of year with regular flu season, etc). 7/n Let’s trust Italy’s numbers and assume that about 10% of cases are serious enough to require hospitalization. (Keep in mind that for many patients, hospitalization lasts for weeks β€” in other words, turnover will be very slow as beds fill with COVID19 patients). 8/n By this estimate, by about May 8th, all open hospital beds in the US will be filled. (This says nothing, of course, about whether these beds are suitable

If Survivor S40 was Old School vs New School, where do you draw the dividing line?

I.e. which season do you deem as the last of "Old School"?

Also, if a player played on seasons either side of that divide, how do you categorise them? Does it depend on their defining season, overall 'playstyle', or maybe just their first or most recent season?
