Quite surprised to see such strong opinions on this issue - I can obviously sympathise with a desire to privacy but personally hold faith in doctor confidentiality. More pressingly - how can a doctor provide the best care in the absence of

Are you a doctor? (I would guess not) I am surrounded by doctor family members and friends (and nearly trained as a doctor) - diagnosis comes from incredibly vague datapoints and so context (and additional data points) are so valuable. Pati

I find this topic hard to comment on specifically, but I think you are probably on the right lines about specificity of the observed phenomenon being of key here. Using a ridiculous example "for a sample set of 10, the author found tha

I can feel your frustration with the service but I'm unconvinced that "download the next ep" is a dark pattern and more that you're a niche that their UX currently isn't catering towards. I do a lot of cellular&#x2F

I don't really find this distinction useful - essentially it comes down to definitions. It's not a treatment that is well understood in the way that some physiological mechanisms may be understood, but trick is an overloaded term

A very interesting ethical discussion I had with a doctor friend recently is that in some cases where a doctor identifies that amputation is the right/only course of action, they will only present that as a soft option to the patient,

I had a quick cursory glance for useful contrasting data to show how while wages in real terms have stayed flat in the US, things like college tuition fees[1] and house prices[2] have not. Both of these things are pretty important - college

Are you able to elaborate further on what attack vector you're thinking of (if only so I can google it) - JSON hijacking maybe? The implicit assumption being that internally everything trusts the proxy?

serious question: what is the alternative as an interface to something like this that isn't a DSL? Is something that looks a bit like a familiar query language (like SQL) better? Is finding yourself in the uncanny valley of a languag

Of course it already exists /sigh. Seems like this is a great way to do copyright trolling - it's highly scalable and exists within a walled garden which means it's a legal grey area for things like this, much like how free

Other commenters have mentioned about how pirating can increase exposure and in fact increase sales - Breaking Bad (which isn't music) is one big name example of this happening. In any case, "album sales" is a very one dimens

I always struggle with the doublethink that a "coffee" (that is, a black coffee) has nearly 0 calories. But a "coffee" (that is a drink that is really fat and sugar with some coffee added there) could have x calories whe
