Not hands off - just not spoon feeding. Manager A lets experts be experts and be creative and take responsibility but gives guidance and guidelines. But experts are fallible, and distractions are many, and sometimes even experts get lazy o

I love being manager A. I always start sprints/epics as manager A. In my experience 1 of 5 projects succeeds with Manager A and I get a very superior result with a solution I myself would have never thought of. Rainbows and unicorns ev

Operational control EHRs have over hospitals is because of executive level dysfunction. I have personally seen large Epic sites where the CxOs had never actually used Epic hands on before forcing it upon the staff and spending well over $1

There was an old BBC series called Connections that followed seemingly unrelated chains of inventions to their modern day endpoints. Worth finding on YouTube. Edit: found Wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Co

There are viable defenses. There was similar work at three letter agencies back in 2001 - 2004 time frame and defenses were interactive. Ie flood the mouse or other logger with real enough looking data or use steganography Could the defense

No need to imagine. It happens all the time. More the rule than the exception, really.

I have hired several coding school grads - not Lambda but very similar. I’ve seen these employees plateau and have recommended they consider going back to a traditional degree program to power the next phase of their career. I agree the cur

I would summarize it rather: a good product can yield a large network but only when combined with a good monetization/business plan can it be a successful business.

Epic is not hosted software, it is installed and heavily customized at each hospital. Epic doesn’t have a global db of all patient records.

When you actually get into contracts with these large cos, they may ask if you are HITRUST audited ( very expensive). If only that were sufficient. Then they will still insist on sending you their 50 page checklist (draw, label, and explai

Thumbs up for QC in general. Thumbs down for hype.

I have fond memories of running MM simulations on an SGI workstation so I totally grok the potential. Not arguing against the utility of QC - just trying to slow down the hype train. Telling someone that downloading an SDK will anytime soo

Allow me to clarify. I 100% agree with requiring accredited investors for ICO participation (or IPO or CryptoKitty speculation, etc). My blue collar parents could hardly be expected to spend the full time effort required to do due diligence

How is this dissimilar from raising VC money? > The problem is that you're giving money to a relatively unknown company while speculating that the company will create inherent value. That's what seed round VCs or angels do. Sur

Having studied economics and married to a PhD in behavioral science, I would urge you to separately consider the academic utility of the models of “most economists” from real life. Economic theories and models have a lot of value, just not

Where in the CFR does it say you have to use physical servers or even dedicated cloud instances? AWS will sign a BAA for dedicated instances only (biz policy, not for any valid security reason), but dedicated servers are not required by HIP

Totally agree that AP is designed as interest free financing in most companies, large and small. Though I don't know if a squeaky wheel solves that, even with AI or social engineering, etc., precisely because delay is explicitly incen

Physical products? Do they still make those!! ;) Agreed, I feel your pain. I would think this is only initially a solution for specific use cases, SaaS being one of them...and luckily the one I do. And in a highly regulated, safety critica

Well I would argue it has all the same goals and steps of a traditional contract, but automated and electronic. Your points are all valid today...but I recall similar points about e-commerce and e-banking circa 1999. I can hardly be consi

All great points, and to the meta discussion here of whether ideas are sufficient, I think you just demonstrated that ideas need experience and experimentation more than they need funding :) That said, I think the fact that some folks misus
