   An argument for giving kids open-book tests during the pandemic (and after) I like especially here the argument that by explaining open-book exams are not easier and preparing students to take them, you prepare them for higher level synthesis as well. https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2020/11/30/an-argument-giving-kids-open-book-tests-during-pandemic-after/

   From CDCgov http://status.hackerposse.com/url/22934 on Twitter: Rates of #COVID19 remain high across all regions of the United States, with 68% of jurisdictions experiencing increasing case rates. Help slow the spread: Wear a mask over your nose AND mouth. Wash your hands. Stay 6 feet from others. More: http://status.hackerposse.com/url/22935 http://status.hackerposse.com…

    From NPR https://twitter.com/NPR on Twitter: The Arecibo Observatory has collapsed. Once the world's largest single-dish radio telescope, it was used to detect the first binary pulsar in 1974 a discovery that bolstered a key idea in Einstein's general theory of relativity. https://www.npr.org/2020/12/01/940767001/arecibo-observatory-telescope-collapses-ending-an-era-of-world-class-research?utm_campaign=npr

    OK. 4 hours just to get ::getTaggerWeight() to be allowed in compiled code while also allowing ITrackToVertexIPEstimator to be used in compilation. FANTASTIC. The solution: Use AthDerivation, not AthAnalysis. Thank God it was obvious in hindsight.

    Alternatively, ATLAS Friends, I'll accept an AOD (not DAOD) container tag set that contains PFlow jets decorated with the DL1r auxiliary data for b-tagging. And go. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1333869457597460480/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/69684

    OK, ATLAS Experiment friends: in Athena 21.3.X, FFS how do you retrieve the b-tagging weight of a jet? Fun fact: the BTaggingSelectionTool does NOT contain the ::getTaggingWeight() method in 21.3. And go. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1333868119476068352/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/69682

    As of the latest Athena conundrum, we have moved from "Lacuna Coil" to "Evanescence". That is not a good progression.

    In order to get the tag weight for a jet, I have to use AthAnalysis in 21.2, but if I want to compute the distance from the tracks to the interaction point, I have to use Athena 21.3.

    Lacuna Coil is my spirit guide on today's descent into purgatory that is writing a top-pair b-jet analysis in ATLAS's Athena Framework. Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1333846823480532993/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/69677

    He didnt take covid-19 seriously. Being hospitalized made a believer out of him. The analogy at the end of this piece is apt: coronavirus is a massive ongoing marshmallow test for all of society. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2020/12/01/covid-behavior-change/
