There's a general design problem of translating abstract massive problems (like world hunger) into something bite sized that people can relate to and act on (like feed one starving child). Vast problems like climate change, water short

Healthcare user experience sucks. Last century kind of sucks. Find a job at Cerner or Epic who account for more than half of all hospital information systems and help clinicians avoid tragic errors, make faster and better decisions, underst

The supply of skilled, vetted labor exists at the higher regulated prices in most locations. The demand for the service exists in most locations at today's lower prices. Even squeezing out inefficiencies to lower costs and improve conv

I love this. Writers ask the same question. Teaching literature and composition starts with reading the works of greats who game before, learning what made them great, and incorporating their skills into your own tool box.

There's value in automated reporting but cities like Oakland, California, had trouble justifying the expense at current signal/noise ratios. Efforts to boost the signal are expensive and involve human analysts today. And the sales

It's all about the feedback loop. Failure analysis (where necessary) is more than a bumpersticker obituary. And we also need to catch lessons learned along the way, both the microfailures we learn from and the assumptions we tested a

yep. once your bill rate hits $100/hour, hiring someone for $15-25/hour to drive you (assuming you can do billable work in transit) is a good investment. It may even be worth it to non-billable work, like write your novel, learn a

Right now the code gatekeepers have been keeping their heads down, charging modest sums per use to keep milking the cow. But they seem like ripe takeover targets. Another city wants to win the Olympic bid instead of you? Or to steal your pr

1. IANAL. 2. Document everything. Go through your calendar since you first met them and write up notes for every conversation. What was said and what you thought it meant, and any artifacts from those meetings (emails, chats, texts, documen

It's just another biometric matching system. So it might be used as a form of sign-in to your car's network or data, better than taking your hands off the wheel to key a password. Or a LoJack complement that identifies your car&#x
