It’s horrifying and also just accepted and pushed constantly by established doctors and administrators. It’s the same as teaching - only the most zealous will ever survive, because they’re the only one that will put up with the conditions.

In the short term, discovering I have a dissociative disorder was very difficult, and the discovery rendered me unable to maintain my job. Cue a massive amount of reading into some of the darker parts of humanity to try to explain what happ

It’s a bit of an investor trick as recurring revenue is treated as orders of magnitude more important than moment to moment sales. This is for some good reasons but there’s also reason to think it’s overvalued as every industry has very dif

One can't even mark all messages as read in iMessage, which seems to me like the most basic functionality. Something is really messed up in how this thing has to run if you can't do that

Agree, I’ll use sweet basil (labeled Thai basil) and it can work okay for the dish! The quality of the ground pork matters - especially in American grocery stores the ground pork smells like cat food. If it’s pink all the way through and lo

Broadly agree that simpler is better. Having seen systems be built up over time that do significant things (or run on many platforms, or have lots of abstractions) a lot of the time the tougher parts are.. well, complicated. Some of those t
