Yes, but in practice it is rarely the situation where a doctor is making this call on their own. The hierarchy from doctor to senior leadership should be involved in decisions like this because there are many more ramifications than just on

Part of the problem is that most people know very little about how drugs are developed, but they form a type of connection because they know the Gates Foundation. My hope is people gain a deeper appreciation of what's involved across m

What are these services? SaaS products, or things your company built? Okta, Azure AD, and other identity services offer password sign-in from a custom dashboard you setup. It would be cheap to test out. That way you just grant access to the

ARM is on the rise within the industry. It's not a trend only for Apple, but Apple might try to move more quickly than other players. My guess is that they'll try to evolve iPad, as an ARM-based portable device, before they look t

This is required for good reason. It only makes sense to lower standards when there is going to be a realistic payoff. The general public place a lot of trust in the various parties to make the right decisions. Running with too much risk fr

Could you run the old Lightroom in a VM? Ultimately, you might have to unless you migrate or pay up. Lightroom is inexpensive relative to other tools and everyday expenses I have. The same goes for other closed-source photography software m

Many IT teams do a lot to further this view unfortunately. They are often too passive and fail to engage with the rest of the company. Creativity isn't valued and good folks leave which means you only have very average process drones.

There seem to be relatively few themes out there, but it seems the intent of Tailwind is that you are building a custom design. There is no reason these themes couldn't exist, but you'd also want custom some components to complete

Nice. My initial reaction is that the serif fonts are hard to read. Can you try some console or san-serif fonts, or make that configurable? Someone else suggested toggleable themes, so it would go with that.
