> The language doesn't enforce them, so they may as well not exist. See: python dependency management. I see your point. You can enforce them with mypy by declaring your exports in your __init__.py file, using the `as` aliasing meth

Tools like this rub me the wrong way. We have well established conventions like prefixing private modules and symbols with an underscore, or declaring your public interfaces in the __init__.py file, but the Python developer decries it as &q

Why is it a ripoff? Is anyone being swindled?

Indeed, it’s about what consumers are willing to pay, not what it costs to produce. It’s called value-based pricing.

Depends person to person. For me it's the difference between waking up 6-8 times throughout the night, and sleeping for a sound 8 hours without interruption. For my wife, not much difference, other than we are able to sleep together, w

I don't follow, sorry

*subjectively. Once you realize just how important quality sleep is, and how much this can help, $20/month bed subscription becomes a laughably small price to pay.

We used a binlog reader library for Python, wrapped it in some 50 loc of rudimentary integration code and hosted it on some container somewhere. Data volume was low though.

Between 2018 and 2022 I've probably consumed 1500 animals worth of products, and didn't hand 3 paralyzed people their autonomy back as a result, so I'd say Neuralink are doing just fine.

Can you clarify how you arrived at the conclusion that I was implying fixing the UX is easy, or where you saw me asking for "vague improvements"? While we're on the subject, I can assure you, Nix is far, far from groundbreaki

No idea. That's for the advertising firms to figure out.

Use it as a signal to start an investigation into how many agree with that sentiment, try to measure the resulting adoption dropoff, and use those stats to push for a UX redesign.

Baffling to me how advertising to those without a stable source of above living-cost income is allowed in the first place. Let alone advertising to children.

That sounds very strange to me. If the adjuster has this information, why the need for a review from a consulting doctor? And why would the consulting doctor not be expected to know the costs of these treatment options, at least in relation

Insurance firms have the unique benefit of being able to offload their costs to their customer base in the form of premiums. That and excess would be the appropriate level to ration in the cost. Is that not verbatim how insurance works?

by lijok 2y ago
So are you saying the doctors contracted to review the treatments need access to the clients insurance policies in order to make a decision on whether the treatment is appropriate? For what purpose? My, arguably naive, understanding is that

Because Nix has dogshit UX and the team seem to be completely oblivious to it regardless of how many times it's brought up.

What a poorly designed system. If the insurer truly prioritizes client care as they claim, why on earth would the doctors contracted to review the treatments of the insured, have access to the insurance policies? Shouldn't the output o
