Seems obvious. Private equity is all about sacrificing everything on the altar of cost cutting, quality be damned. Why should we be surprised they do the same to the hospitals they buy?

It's an EHR... with no actual EHR logic in it. It's just a front-end to a proprietary service, zapEHR, that does all the actual heavy work of being an application.

That doesn't matter -- the issue here isn't that "innocent" people might see Apple advertisements, or nazi posts. The issue here is that Apple doesn't want their ads _next to_ nazi posts, no matter what the user is

This is a fake, or some form of LARP. The photos are trivially easy to determine that they were photoshopped; see https://eldritch.cafe/@hlieberman/111326828661150739 for detailed debunking.

That's not quite true. First of all, the anti-tivoization clause only applies to things "normally used for personal, family, or household purposes" or things "sold for incorporation into a dwelling". You can run G

This comparison doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. It's like saying "when I need a dessert, I prefer pie to gelato". I mean, yes, they're both dessert, but they're not the same category of thing. Debian

I think comprehensions make a little bit more sense in the Erlang world than in the Elixir one, just because of the more functional style. Still, I don't think there's anything wrong with them in Elixir either; just a bit odd in

I talked about this several years ago[1], but I strongly believe that we, as a profession, don't invest nearly enough into thinking through all the possible consequences of the things that we design. It's easy to write off that w

Virtue-signaling messaging aside, do you feel that this _isn't_ a case that should be within the spirit of the EFF for defending "digital privacy"? In my mind, there's a direct line from the government requiring someone

Fun fact: in some jurisdictions such as New York and DC, this is illegal. It's called "discrimination against the unemployed". Check the laws of your state, the state you would work in, and the state the company is headquar

Is anyone even a little bit surprised by this? I _hate_ touchscreen controls in a car. At their very best, they're an annoying cost savings measure; in many circumstances, they're actively dangerous.

A dubious study by a conservative think-tank which is funded by Turning Point USA, Prager U, and the Blexit Foundation. Yeah, definitely something worth reading.

This is horrible. pde was the person who asked me to get involved with Let's Encrypt, and introduced me to many of the people that I've worked with the past several years at both the EFF and ISRG. Rest peacefully, my friend.

Some distributions take this more seriously than others. Debian, historically, is the largest stickler about this. I've had to delay packaging things for licensing problems[1], written 1000+ line d/copyright files[2], etc. Not

I've never used Tailscale, but I want to highlight specifically for working with AWS, you could consider using AWS Systems Manager to access machines that are in private VPCs[1][2]. This has the advantage of reusing the same credentia

If I am looking at a ~100 years timescale for preservation of documents, there are exactly two choices that I would consider. At the hundreds of years timescale, exactly one. Those are, in order: 1. Microfilm/microfiche 2. Ink on 100%
