Hospitals are covered under EMTALA so if it’s truly emergency and they accept Medicare, they are legally forced to. A hospital that doesn’t take Medicare has no obligation to give you any treatments.

Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequences from that speech. You can say whatever you want, but that doesn’t mean I have to let you sit at my bar.

Stopping consumer IP cameras being used as a mass surveillance operation on US citizens by a hostile foreign government does not seem like an overreach.

Reliance for critical infrastructure on a geopolitical enemy. Historians often site “The Great Illusion” which was written in 1909 and predicted there would be no more major or prolonged wars due to the new global and interconnected economy

That was only half the premise, the other half was > unfettered access to the teleco networks of the countries that they themselves say are their greatest enemies? Regardless of how they got their tech, that premise is the reason for blo

You teach abstract algebra and real analysis that’s light on proofs?

Yea, Arnold’s ODE book is great, but it’s basically a physics textbook.

I agree with this. For example, teaching Lie groups / algebras from the historical perspective of the problem Lie was trying to solve would be a tedious exercise in multi variable calculus and PDEs. On the other hand, once you have a s

Zip code can absolutely be a proxy for race. There’s a reason that banks have compliance departments that have to review any statistical models inputs and assumptions for implicit violations of the Fair Lending / Fair Housing acts.

I’d argue this isn’t true in sports journalism. A news tweet from Woj, Schefter, Rappoport, or Shams has far more reach than the same content in a random ESPN article or sportscenter segment. Without twitter, a whole world of addicted sport

I feel like memresistors have been hyped since HP tried to use it to save their business from 2007-2015. Nothing ever came from it from HP at least. Have there been new developments that make it more likely to be viable?

The current CEO is doing a pretty good job, in my opinion. Has been very focused on fixing the debt situation and improving costs through process and manufacturing improvements rather than accounting non-sense. Comes off as very much a “man

Differential Forms in Algebraic Topology might be one of the best math books ever written. I’ll add Milnor’s Topology from the Differential Viewpoint and/or Differential Topology by Guillemin and Pollack.

That is the goal on the Dem side though. Universal healthcare isn’t picky on the how but on the outcome. That was a core theme of the failed “Hillary Care” bill in the 90s. The Republican EMTALA bill solved access. Every ER is required to t

Whatever mechanism the government uses to “ensure affordable access” would be a regulation. We’ve seen what fully unregulated healthcare looks like and it’s people dying in the streets.

We can always go back to letting insurers deny health care based on “pre-existing conditions.” I’d rather regulators deciding people shouldn’t be priced out of the healthcare market for having asthma or diabetes. Or go back before the (unfu
