Image you've got a black patient in front of you and you're choosing between two drugs. One of the drugs has a greater risk of nasty side affects for the black patient. Which drug do you give the patient? Should the research that

This is a bit ridiculous. It's well known in medicine that members of different ethnic groups have different risks and complications. This article describes how members of different ethnic groups have different complications in pregnan

The article kind of touches on this when it says scrambling for the first 10 users. For me the big realisation was that my company was more likely to fail because of lack of product market fit or demand, rather than unmaintainable code. Onc

You only get to say that when there are no other studies. If other good studies exist (which they do) then your study should add something. That means that your study should either replicate an existing study with similar or greater statist

Whenever I'm in an office I pick the computer with the most visible screens, so everyone can see what I'm doing. It has the same affect, but it's much cheaper.

Agreed, nordigen is amazing. One of my companies uses it. However they don't implement the full PDS2 API. The OP might need features that Nordigen don't support.

I live in the UK where the cost of living is very low (less than half that of the US), and contractor wages are high. Contractor wages are so high in the UK because our labour laws are so strong. Companies will pay a huge premium to be able

How do you get classed as a "small payment institution" and what does that cost?

To connect directly to a European Bank's API you need to be PSD2 compliant, which costs about 100,000 EUR You need a partner who is PSD2 compliant. Nordigen is the easiest to work with, but their API might not have all of the features

A human trains on way less data then an AI. Chat GPT has processed over 500GB of text files from books, about 44 billion words. If you read a book a week you might hit 70 million words by age 18

Agreed. The comments in the other threads are missing the point. The law specifically prohibited praying for people getting abortions. The intent was to stop the loud verbal agressive prayers. The police interpreted it to include silent pra

Societies demand for software is basically infinite. Right now only people who can pay for developers get to have good custom software. As LLMs increase the output of a programmer more people will be able to comission custom software. More

It sounds like the perfect time to jump to freelance. You've got 2 clients already. However... What happens if both clients back out and you suddenly get no work for a year? Do you have 1 year of savings runway? Will your family and li
