I like how people think here. They are presented with a story, they analyse it, offer considerable effort and insight. That effort comes in the form of reading large amounts, on subjects often beyond my comprehension, and distilling it down to something I can understand. Best of all, an opposing but equally compelling point of view is close by. Often the author/developer turns up. They can answer questions and provide additional context. I send the Link and text excerpts to myself by email and just search ycombinator to get a neat reading list of the most interesting stuff. Every month or so I will go back and read it or pickup a project that's caught my attention. Bitwarden, Tailscale, Shellfish for iPad all came to my attention here and have served me well. Here is an example post; >Hackers hijack and publish metal health data of hundreds of people https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24886039 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24886039 SebaSeba: Some current background info: The breach and the extortion emails are at the moment on the front page of all major Finnish news publications. The Finnish government main ministers are discussing on how to handle the potential crisis, since there are possibly 40 000 patients' records leaked and some of the victims are already in a very vulnerable state and might be feeling even more desperate if their traumas will be publicly shared online. It is also known that there are minors among the victims. https://yle.fi/uutiset/osasto/news/psychotherapy_centre_reveals_two_separate_data_breaches_of_sensitive_patient_information/11612453 https://yle.fi/uutiset/osasto/news/psychotherapy_centre_reve... -- Currently I hold an ENG1Medical certificate which is required by my job. And this has been fine to renew every two years with my Doctor for more than a decade. Now my employer has contracted the services of an external Occupational Health provider. They have presented an extensive questionnaire. Along with this they suggest an abnormally long data retention timeline with no reference to actually data legislation. After reading the comment by SebaSeba about what is going on in the wild there is no way I would participate in such obvious folly. The next comment; https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24887031 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24887031 ChrisMarshallNY: This is a classic "Damoclean sword" conundrum. The ability to digitize and aggregate the data, and maybe even subject it to some kinds of AI, might result in massive improvement in therapy. Mental health treatment has come an incredibly long way, just in the last couple of decades. It's even more amazing, when you look at how it went a hundred years ago. Some of the reasons are because of the ability to study treatment methodologies and outcomes. But having the data in a place that can happen, is very, very risky. ... Cool, so I have to sides of an argument. On one side using this data might help people. At the same time, keeping this data has been demonstrated to hurt people. If I filled in the survey it would be composed of "NO"and "Zero" type answers. No medical conditions or meaningful medical history and Zero alcohol. There is nothing beyond my basic ENG1 Medical certificate needed here. So the decision is simple, I won't be filling the questionnaire out. The other point about how people think is also present. "having the data... is very, very risky." And this idea, which is validated by the very cast of people who deal in the largest datasets in human history, can be applied to everything I do in life. What's it for? What are the risks? Of course I get labelled as difficult within my company in the short term, even predictable, but if I've listened to a debate on the subject I feel confident to weather the storm of an aggressive boss demanding I fill in the survey or face vauge punitive action.
