I love the passive aggressive stab at Sutter.
"Modern Healthcare decided to see how long it would take to present the data in a more consumer-friendly format. It took less than two hours - with a break for lunch - to create the 29 PDF files linked below."
- Forge36 8y agoThe requirement did state "machine readable". Arguably Sutter's data is the easiest to read, this is further evident through the creation of PDFs to make the data human readable so quickly
- AznHisoka 8y agoI agree. When i read that knock on Sutter, I thought it would be great if everyone released the data in JSON, making it easy to download, parse and compare! Let a third party build that useful price comparison tool - just provide the raw data.
- RHSeeger 8y agoI liked how they described it as "a blob of incomprehensible script.". It's JSON, which is a data format, not an incomprehensible script. If you're looking for a machine readable format, it's a pretty solid choice for this type of data on the web.
