NSFWFH

Not Safe For Work From Home

Content, usually a photo that is inappropriate for the work place is deemed NSFW (not safe for work) as co-workers may be offended. With shelter-in-place rules due to COVID-19, many people are working from home with family present.

NSFWFH is the modern variation of NSFW.

doubling time

The time required for a value to double. In the COVID-19 pandemic, doubling time is measured in days and typically applies to the number of deaths or confirmed cases for a country or state.

Initially, the total number of COVID-19 deaths in New York had a doubling time of 2 days but now it has slowed down to 5 days.

Increasing the doubling time of hospitalizations by even a day can have a big positive effect on the system.

quarantime

The unusual sense of time when under house quarantine or shelter-in-place. Time passes both more quickly and yet more slowly according to the time frame.

A day goes by pretty quickly, but the last two weeks seem like forever. I must be in quarantime.

tr;dl

Literally: "too rambley; didn't listen". This spoken phrase is a take off of the popular "tl;dr" (too long; didn't read). Pronounce the letters, namely "tee are. dee ell". This verbal response indicates you stopped listening as the other person was blathering on for too long and you lost interest.

Sarah: So what do you want to do for dinner tonight? We can do Mexican, Italian or Chinese. I want to invite Steve and Kathy, but of course you know that Steve does not like Chinese and Kathy can't eat late. But the only good Italian place is really crowded so the wait would be really long early.. which I guess leaves either that burrito place.... or that not so good Italian place, where the waiter was rude to us the last time. So, what do you think?

Russell: tr;dl
