Essentially every regulating agency will have to get their charter re-written and passed through Congress a second time. While that happens, we can expect to see a flood of cases decided under a variety of standards in lower courts. I think

I agree, there's nothing wrong with focusing on profit. The "non-profit" organizations are given tax-exempt status because they are centered around providing a public or social benefit, they explicitly should not be focused o

I work in the healthcare space and hospitals, in my opinion, are motivated by profit. The rise in private equity purchases of hospitals indicates that the money is going somewhere and it's certainly not any kind of "charity".

People also type them in wrong, so there's another thing: where is the data coming from.

I would argue it's an understanding of the relationship between the words; an effective internal representation of those relationships. IMHO, it's still quite a ways from a representation of the outside world.

The doctor in the article makes this point a couple of times as well: if the only metrics are "time to close" the particular file or case, that's the only metric they are being judged upon. Cigna clearly decided that they did

In my opinion, this will become harder and harder to do with every release of Windows and MacOS. I wouldn't count on the average customer of these vendors being willing to shop outside of their plaatform's app stores forever.

I wonder if it's the big software vendors who have lost their way, rather than the average software developer. We have companies like Microsoft and Adobe moving to Web based applications not because they are better but because it'

Apple started giving away the development environment because they had such an anemic software ecosystem. They had a handful of OpenSTEP developers and a larger crowd of die-hard Mac people, the successful ones mostly moving away from the p

Back in the day, there was this idea of some applications being "document" centered while others revolved around an "activity". On average you only want one instance of your calculator application open as it's what

I use Linux and I ended up moving to i3 almost entirely because of the window and workspace management with multiple displays.

This seems like trying to come up with an answer to Apple Vision's ability to run iOS apps. If you can install apps from Google Play then you could, if you wanted to, check your email from inside your headset. I'm not sure many pe

This weird comparison with the behavior of old-school cable TV customers had me scratching my head. For sure, people stuck with the same cable TV provider: they had no choice. Most markets had only the one provider. "The data suggests

I wonder how long the feature will be free of charge. Maybe OpenAI really wants the data today, or maybe Logitech is paying the bill, but neither will be the case forever.

Apple had a feature like this, I believe it was inherited from OpenStep, where an application could advertise "services" that would appear system wide. I don't know if it's still a thing, but this workflow of "highl

Note that in the article, non-profit hospitals paid their top three CEOs $20 million. "The top three hospital administrators there made nearly $20 million in salaries."

I have to disagree on the "aversion to technology" point. It's something I've heard ever since I started working in software development, this isn't isolated to healthcare. For sure, there is always some resistance

The big push for people to use the Clojure CLI tool seems like shooting themselves in the foot.

I switched from TWM to KDE, I was running MkLinux on a Apple PowerMac. It took a while to build but when I started it up, it seemed amazing at the time.

Actual enterprises do not have a better track record. I would go as far to say that if Big Corp maintained an SSH client and server then a lot of distributions would shun it out of distrust. How many products from actual enterprises phone h

These open source projects have a good reputation and high standards because the developers freely volunteering their time care about the project. Forcing these developers to give their projects to Big Corp may not be the big improvement yo

IMHO, we need structural change in the way US healthcare works. Slathering some AI on top won't solve our cost problems but it will negatively impact our already declining quality of patient care.

There are lots of papers about using some kind of LLM to cut costs and staffing in hospitals. Big companies believe there is a lot of money to be made here, despite the obvious dangers. A quick Google search found this paper, here's a

TLDR: From what I can tell, the "consent" to cloud backup from Google Authenticator was misleading at best and blocked access to the tool until it was given. IMHO this is another example of Google forcing decisions on customers in

It was not in my case. I found out about this feature when I saw the green cloud icon and pressed it to find out what it meant. At that time I was made aware the my data was saved in my Google account.

They were scheduled for an additional day of deposition. Apparently there was more "dirty laundry" to talk about.

Here's a brief article I found about this. They talked to a former security director at LAX who says... “The majority of folks” who are found with firearms “are what we call low-risk passengers,” Jeffries said. “These are your more fre
