Highlights from this day
- ring_size_down — i keep half the sample back so there is something to send if the first one goes missing 15:57
- tga_notice — submissions go out blinded. the lab gets a code, not a supplier name. that removes one variable, it is not distrust 16:14
- tga_notice — do we publish the raw report or a summary 16:30
