COVID-19 in SF calculations

WARNING: THIS IS NOT REAL SCIENCE

I am NOT a subject matter expert. The calculations below rely on some oversimplifying assumptions which are probably wrong. This is NOT intended to be public health advice.

Bayes Theorem

P(B|A) = P(A|B) * P(B) / P(A)

Probability of being COVID-negative when you test positive for COVID in SF

protocol for domain ownership verification in Brave Payments

Intro

The Brave browser now includes a way for users to allocate ~monthly anonymized micropayments for online publishers. These payments are held in an escrow wallet managed by Brave Inc., which must then provide a way for publishers to claim their total allocated funds (minus processing fees).

Note that for 1.0, we only support allocating payments at the domain-name level. Hence, nytimes.tumblr.com and forbes.tumblr.com would count as separately payable publishers, but any funds calculated based on pageviews for myspace.com/forbes and myspace.com/nytimes would simply go to myspace.com. Note that currently Brave includes an exception list that prevents us from paying platforms with user-generated content, like youtube.com.

Verification steps

  1. foo.example.com is eligible to claim payments if its total contributed amount is at least $10. Once this happens, Brave sends verification initiation emails from `paym
