   I would love a post that focused on alerting - how to structure a scalable alerting system that avoids alert fatigue. How to handle errors that only matter if they happen often in a small window but also could matter even if they happen in

   Relatively small sample and, considering almost half of US citizens are vitamin D deficient, you can't rule out boring correlation (and not causation). EDIT: Why does HN have these downvote trolls? I was a bio major and was trained to

   I dunno man - for a 'high tech' sci-fi movie, there aren't anything resembling modern phones in the Matrix. My 7yo has a hard time understanding pay phones. At least the Godfather is set in the past haha.

   I'm not saying it's not fun, I'm saying my 7 year old kid would look at Doom and say "nope" but he would look at q3a and give it a chance.

   I think your description is pretty spot-on. Doom was released in 1993. Quake 3 Arena was released in 1999. Doom had all the ingredients needed to make Q3 but Quake 3 Arena still holds up as an arcade-style shooter, whereas Doom feels lik

    Oh, it definitely has a lot of overhead but it solves the primary problem as described in this article.

    The whole time I read this article, I was thinking "well, there's SOAP...". Was very surprised when I realized he was talking about something like protocol buffer. SOAP is a great way to solve the problem described in this

    Is it using an electromagnet? or is it moving a permanent magnet around inside?

    Not every database is huge. It could be a good solution in certain circumstances.

    I totally sympathize with you and yours, I've made sphincter-clenching mistakes a handful of times during my 20 years of experience. This is an abject lesson that understanding human psychology is actually a huge part of good architect

    The lengths of the identifiers are not known, man. We are dealing with like 200 hospitals. They all have various kinds of Electronic Medical Record system like Epic or Cerner, or one of the 15 other third party vendors that all have custo

    How? Where is the setting to turn it off when initially loading a file?

    by jugg1es 6y ago

    The 10 digits was just an example. There like 100 different ID types with different formats/lengths in healthcare.

    by jugg1es 6y ago

    These aren't fixed-width fields with a known length. The length of the field is unique to the person sending the file and they don't tell us how long it's supposed to be.

    Sure it does but it doesn't give a f*k - once you open it in excel, it does its' own formatting and will save that incorrect formatting even if you save the CSV as a CSV

    Excel removes leading zeros from numeric fields no matter what you do and you cannot turn it off. This is a huge problem in healthcare where many patient identifiers have leading zeros

    I work in healthcare and by far the biggest production issues we've ever run into are people who run Excel spreadsheets through our file processing where the leading zero's have been removed from patient identifiers because that&#

    The only time I ever experienced a legit compiler bug was back in the heady days of Adobe Flex, where compilation would fail for no reason. After probably 2 days, I decided to just start making random changes. I added a bunch of white spa

    I mean, everyone understands what it means when a paper labels the x-axis of a graph as 'size of DNA-like structure compacted in core in terms of size of earth'.

    Is this paper for real? Can anyone give context? It seems so far out of left field that it is unbelievable it was published. Is this genius or malarkey?

    I seriously doubt the Quest 2 will be able to run Alyx. My mid-range PC can't handle it on the Oculus (I think due to some heavy lifting Steam had to do to integrate with the Oculus)
