CareEvolution | Healthcare Interoperability Software Developer/Architect | Ann Arbor, MI | ONSITE, REMOTE, VISA, https://www.careevolution.com/

What we do actually matters.

It's estimated that 250,000 people die in America annually because of medical errors. That makes it the #3 cause of death, just behind heart disease and cancer (goo.gl/zntNUd). This is a major societal catastrophe - and it needs to be fixed. Part of the solution is the long-overdue modernization of our nation's health IT infrastructure. This is CareEvolution's mission - to create better patient outcomes by modernizing - and connecting - our health IT systems.

We are looking for several healthcare interoperability software devs/architects who are familiar with thing s like CDA/CCD/CCDA; IHE profiles like PIX, XDS, XCPD, XCA, XDR; and HL7.

We're a small team - still under 100 people (and all technical!) - but our platform manages health data for over 130 million people.

Didn't Starbucks try something like that? I think it was called Hear Music.
I suspect that the average paid Spotify user is actually listening for hours at a time, while they are working or driving. I don't think people are turning it on and off a few songs at a time.

You're missing one thing. The reason we have the algorithm and not the latest newsfeed is not because it's better for the users but it's because better for Facebook to be able to charge the people who create the shared content to float up in the feed. You see the shared meme about the latest new Netflix show before your friends Cat photo because Netflix paid Facebook to show it more often. Netflix is the customer here, you are the product.

Again, if you were able to control exactly what you wanted to see with a control panel - that's a simple thing to implement, but that's not what Facebook does/is. It's an advertising platform. "social networking" is double speak.

Or purchase some existing labels. Warner, which is about 20% of the global market, was worth $3.3b -- 11% of spotify -- in 2011 [1]

If I read that correctly, it implies the bulk of the recording industry is worth less than Spotify.

Teacher here.

Whether or not schools are authorized to share information like that, companies ask all the time. I get tons of junk mail sent directly to me at school (as does every other teacher) asking for student names, DOB, address, etc. or for me to give the students the forms directly for them to fill out and then mail back.

It’s usually for very sketchy “scholarship” or “study abroad” opportunities (from companies and organizations no one has ever heard of and the return address is some random PO box in Deleware.)

Sometimes, however, it’s from straight up marketing companies.

The vast majority of teachers throw these things straight in the trash but some teachers will fill out any form they are given...
> Spotify was under obligation to do an IPO. Part of the motivation for this structure was avoiding that penalty language.

To be specific: they did a DLP, not an IPO. Underwriters make sense for IPOs, because the company is raising money. There's no point to an underwriter in an DLP, because the company isn't raising money.

They were not under requirements to hold an IPO; they were required to provide public liquidity to their shareholders. That's why they chose a process that involved no underwriting. And that's also why their case doesn't really provide any generalize lessons, because those types of terms are incredibly rare in growth-stage venture financing.

Did you consider https://threema.ch/en yet? I have been using it for years and it is great (iOS and Android). The developers keep adding new useful features to stay on par with Whatsapp etc. For instance, their web chat is currently in beta.
I cannot imagine that is is a good plan. I just don't see enough innovation coming from the processor space to justify the overhead of design, development, testing, and manufacturing while effectively re-inventing most of the underlying system. Unless they build them as x86 clones... but even then it seems like they would be playing catch-up to new innovation.

If Apple really plans on doing this, it MUST be because of some fundamentally new capability that they are either unwilling to divulge to Intel, or Intel is unwilling to invest in. Some kind of core change to the way that Macs interact with or behave with users; otherwise it just doens't make sense to me.
> If your stock underperforms, you have to pay them back

You're referring to the greenshoe [1].

Suppose a company is selling 100 shares at $100 per share. The underwriter will collect orders for 115 shares at $100 per share. This puts them in a natural short position.

A greenshoe lets the underwriter buy up to 15 additional shares from the company at $100 per share. If the price goes up to $105, they exercise the greenshoe. They buy 15 shares from the company at $100 and deliver them to the buyers to whom they sold shares they didn't have. If the price goes down to $95, they buy those shares (leaving the greenshoe un-exercised) and deliver them to the buyers to whom they sold the shares at $100.

Same story for me, give or take a few percent. I have to recommend dask for python though, it made out of memory errors largely disappear for me. It allows parallel processing of disk-size datasets with the convenience of in-memory datasets (almost).
I live in Sweden. No one I know uses cash. I haven't had the need for nor used cash for years. Even if headlines often are overblown, this feels particularly misleading, as it implies that there would be some bigger trend.

Considering that many people only read headlines, I'd support a movement for becoming more accurate even with headlines.

"In Sweden, some worry about the cashless society" would be way more apt.
Just from speaking to my friends who are not tech people and regular Panera Bread customers. They don't care. Sorry for using this language but as a direct quote one of them said "dude who gives a shit, everyone is leaking shit these days."
I'm not contesting the other points you bring up, but hunger is the major challenge in calorie-restricted diets.
It's not the fact that the SIP is there which bothers me. It's that Apple introduces these kinds of things with little notice and without caring if they break compatibility. This has always been Apple's approach and it's just not friendly for developers.
Spotify has many "session" recordings from a variety of artists, they also have live albums from concerts that aren't available anywhere else on the internet. Trust me, I've been scouring every dark corner of the net for a recording of Run The Jewels Sxsw 2015 concert to no avail.
Who is listening to all of this self-published music to get training data for Discover Weekly?
Spotify is a tech company by all measures. Their core value propositions - recommendation engine, UI/UX, scaling responsive applications - those are pretty 'tech' problems.
> Spotify is at the mercy of major record labels

For now. They have a large enough reach to essentially "become" a major record label, all they need is to start signing artists to contracts.
I see this is from the ionic people - What are the goals for this vs ionic? Is this supposed to eventually replace it? Will it still be pushing Angular on us, or is it possible to use any JS framework?

We're not building Capacitor in a vacuum, it's targeted at the existing and large community of Ionic developers that are already successfully building these web-based mobile apps today. If you need the highest performance option for your app and don't care about PWAs or Electron compatibility, you should just build a pure native app and get as close to the metal as possible.
Our paid users do not see third-party ad network ads, so no.

There are other third party services we use that may see various pieces of information from free and paid members. Stripe, for example, manages some payment processing and collects some user data; ZenDesk manages support tickets for us and also collects various pieces of user data.

In the coming months we will be sharing more information about the third parties with whom we work and on whom our service is built, and how data is shared between them. When it comes to ad networks, however, our integration is limited to what I mentioned above.
Well, trust is earned, it is not a right. So far they appear to be failing in earning people's trust.
I'm potentially open to it being an app. At the moment, it's just a readme file.

Previously, my best idea was to set up a throw away gmail address, activate the phone using that and then bookmark some websites. I am looking for something better than that approach.

An app still probably needs to set up your Google account on the phone to download it. That might be a problem, especially if this catches on and hundreds (or thousands) of throwaway gmail addresses are needed. I would rather the recipient of the phone set it up with their own email address.

My understanding is a custom ROM is more built in than that and shouldn't require setting up an app store account. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Contact info summary is great. Something I'd love to have is exporting friends' birthdays into my calendar. That and contact info is really all I need from Facebook.
Shhh! Don't give them any ideas!

Seriously, Hollywood's love affair with remaking movies is just sad. Of course, it's not completely new, they were doing it even back in the early days, but not to the extent that they are now. They just aren't coming out with that many new and innovative movies like they did in the 70s and 80s. Where's the "Alien" or "Blade Runner" or "Ghostbusters" of today? Movies like that just aren't being made, but remakes or sequels to these decades-old movies are.
Ditto. I was able to get my foot in the door of industry due to this course and Scott Allen's PluralSight C# courses.

I've now built 2 data warehouses and helped with maintenance on another. It's not my main focus, but it's nice to be able to do it myself when the work calls for it.

I got hired at my first job out of college due to the C# ones and I've been working in C# since then, with a smattering of other languages here or there.
Why does it matter if some people are underutilizing cores on their laptop? Mine are constantly pegged (developer running a lot of different heavy processes) and I'd appreciate the ability to pay more for an upgrade. There are many others like me.
I agree they should sign exclusive deals with artists which would give them leverage in their negotiations with the record labels with an eye on the long-term hope of breaking that reliance on them.

They won't be able to get into concert tickets at the present time in any significant way due to the exclusive agreements between Ticketmaster and venues. Though maybe the could start with some smaller acts and venues and work their way up.

Live performances is where the money is for the artists which is why record labels are now signing acts up for complete deals which include not just the music rights but the concert and merch rights as well.

Edit: as somebody who has tried to buy tickets to a hot show on Ticketmaster the second they go on sale and watched the servers melt, it is Amazon that I would like to see get in the ticket game.

This is not a replacement for Ionic! Ionic provides a cross-platform UI layer for mobile web apps. Capacitor is a replacement for Cordova which manages the native SDK interaction and native app project management/tooling side of your app.

Once we integrate it into the Ionic CLI, you won't really have to think about which part is Ionic UI and which part is Capacitor.
You do realize how HN works right? If none cared it would not get upvoted.
Soon enough Spotify will become the record label. All a record label does is, produce, promote and distribute. It's an antiquated model.
We are going to have a very sorry series of tragedies if that doesn't change. Remote monitoring is fine, remote control is not. At least, not for things like nuclear power, weapons systems, vehicles that can drive very fast, etc
I'm surprised no-one had mentioned YC's Startup School! We did the Founder's Track last year and it's by far the most useful MOOC for my startup and I. We had an awesome YC alum as an advisor and a weekly group office hours chair.
Chiming in with support of this course.

I studied portions of it before I got my first "real" tech job (not a call-center) and it put me on a path straight towards my career as a developer. I go back to the course every year or so and try to pick more gems out of it -- it's truly fantastic.
I wouldn't blame the CPU as much as I would blame Dell. I have had a Threadripper 1950x (2 Ryzen 7 1800X on the same chip IIRC) since launch day and have not had any stability issues (unless I try to overclock it over 4GHZ - but that's my own fault/doing.)
Youngin' ... my father and I could both be baby boomers.
I would not be surprised if the long term goal is to not just produce but to be THE market place for all music. They already promote tickets to concerts, why stop at promotion, they could easily displace ticketmaster, and with ticketmasters lack of goodwill I am sure lots of people would be happy for this to happen.
The thing is, Netflix now is very different from Netflix 5 years ago -- most of the content is the one they produce. Music doesn't work this way, many people just want to listen to old music while it's rare for people to rewatch old shows and movies. There are many albums I have listened to tens of times, and I don't think I have ever watched a film more than three or four times. If the labels pull the artists to make their own Spotifies, Spotify will be left with pretty much nothing, in a situation much worse than Netflix
With the exception that these systems wouldn't have identified the type errors we highlight.
Craigslist is one of the most frustrating user experiences I have ever had. Every attempt I have made to use it has ended with me looking elsewhere, and each time I have had vastly better experiences on other sites.

Everyone has a huge bias for what they already know. If you already understand and like Craigslist, I'm sure it's great. As a new user, it's awful.
Any thoughts on tech implementation that you might think could be feasible?

4 Features of DevTools you didn't know
> is it the notion that if you scream about something you don't like enough, someone else will fix it, through legislation, so you can stop worrying about it?

This notion is often called collective action, and it’s how most of the social change of the last couple hundred years was achieved in the US (and elsewhere), from black people and women attaining the right to vote, to the end of child labor, to gay marriage, to the existence of weekends.

This 'screaming' is the basis of representative democracies; the system of government that we live under.

> if you don't like something then don't partake in it - short of it being something being physically forced on you.

In every country I'm aware of, surveillance of at least some physical space is non-optional, and could be called 'forced'. The dichotomy of "physically forced" and (by implication) 'voluntary' doesn't seem useful. Very few of the current and hypothetical problems with surveillance are because it's physically-forced on people; it's that a cost-benefit equation is engineered to make it practically irresistible.

Let’s say you’re a poor high-school student. To participate in classes you need to use the school issued Chromebook and an associated Google account. You could resist and not participate in class, but even given a full understanding of the privacy cost, this would be irrational and self-destructive. If you'd like to join your residents' association that may require a Facebook account, if you'd like to travel on an airplane that likely entails video-surveillance which will be used for facial recognition, if you take a job at a company with significant-IP (or not much cash), you're very likely to be working on a machine containing a surveillance-rootkit etc. etc. ad nauseam.

This article is about solutions to the societal problem of mass-surveillance (both from the state and industry). Retreating from society for your own protection (while things get worse for everyone else) is never going to be helpful for addressing the societal problem.

Perhaps you think the status quo is fantastic and shouldn't be changed. Perhaps you have the resources to live a puritanical life avoiding surveillance; I'm impressed! But the fact that you have the freedom to do so is a direct result of the collective action of others.
How to use the #1 online marketplace for job seekers to get a job in tech
Craig Wright is a fraud. He claimed to be Satoshi. To prove his claim, he was repeatedly challenged to move a single coin from the early blocks known to have been mined by Satoshi to any other wallet address and failed to do so.
The paywall prevents me from finding out the economist's theory, but I can put forth my own.

The two movies Sully and Deepwater Horizon, which both came out in 2016, are near mirror images of each other in many ways.

Sully is partly the story about a pilot who has spent his entire career landing failing airplanes, effectively training him to do it again with higher stakes, where its never happened before. But its also the story of all of the regulation that has prevented all commercial aviation disasters since 2001. Sully may stay calm under pressure, but he's standing on the shoulders of giants. The flight attendants stick to their training. The port authority and the captains of the boats that rescue all of the passengers stick to their training. The NTSB even sticks to their training in certain ways. Plans were set forth, and followed. Even at the end of the movie, it is made clear that the NTSB's flaw was to control for all of the time constraints Sullenberger faced, all of the stress, and hid the fact that it was something like the 20th attempt in the simulator that was the first successful landing.

Deepwater horizon is the story about a company that has successfully captured their regulatory framework. There was inadequate training, inadequate safety measures, inadequate equipment to properly measure the specifics of the well. And so when the shit hits the fan, does everyone stay calm and exercise the plan to effect their continued survival? Nope, they all panic, and they nearly all die.

Planes and Trains are far safer than automobiles because of ratio of humans to engines.
Maybe the answer is to turn the dial to 11 on information sharing and require data transparency from managers/leaders/public servants who operate data accumulation outfits.

Track users' location data? Then your location must be public record & realtime. Etc.

At the end of the day, this is about information asymmetry. If the general public loses privacy, then so should those who benefit from that information, in order to level the playing field.
One of the issues that nobody seems to address is when entire societies shift to cashless, there are network operators who are still milking their first mover advantages. A product that is worth x, is now priced at 1.01x to pay for transaction networks. Europe is definitely ahead than US, but there needs to be better regulations around this.
